This knife is great ! I have several SOG knives, both fixed blade and folding blade, and I like all of them. This blade has a good balance in the hand. The blade is not too big and heavy nor is it too small to do the job. The blade is sharp right out of the box and is easy to touch up when needed. The blade is made of a special stainless steel, so it will not rust like the carbon steel blades. The sheath has a pouch which will hold a Lansky sharpener, which has a ceramic rod and a diamond dust rod to sharpen any type of knife blade .https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0085PPSIQ/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_113. The back of the sheath has a MOLLE  strap system which also allows it to attach to a LC 3 pistol belt for a multiple attachment option. I think you will like this knife as much as I like it.
