Love the feel of the

"Love the feel of the knife and the weight, the only issue i kinda have is the color isn't what I was expecting. I love the red but I can see the faded to black underneath. But that doesn't affect performance so its a small complaint"

HOO YAA

"I do like it. . though I am a bigger fan of other handle styles in your line (PLUS) This item was bought as a gift; therefore, I will not be actually using it. ( I did open for a sneak peak though. . SHhhh ) . . . . it reminds me of the U. S. Marines (i'd likely buy a DOD set of steak knives if you made that - one of the heavier handle styles though ;)"

This is my third

"This is my third knife from the shadow black series. I have the hybrid, 17” tuna slicer, and now the red 12” slicer. The red is gorgeous and I love how it even shines through the sheath when it is stored away. The knife is full tang construction and the handle is more comfortable than you’d think—but the star of the show is the red color. If you haven’t bought a shadow black series, one word of caution, the sheaths are not the same quality as other lines. The omega, shogun, fire storm alpha, night shark, and others I own, all have sheaths that I think are better made and keep the knife more secure. The shadow black series, you kind of slip the knife in the sheath and hope for the best. There is no strap or clip, and the top of the knife is kind of pressure closed instead of enclosed. Might not be a big deal to you but worth noting and I included pictures so you can see what I mean. I knew this going in and it earns 5 stars from me since I already had that expectation before buying. Dalstrong also has incredible customer service should you ever have an issue. I’ve needed help twice over the past 12 months and they’ve been stellar each time."

Cam H. (5/5)

A really beautiful, quality

"A really beautiful, quality tool. Works as good as it looks; just a few swipes on each side of a knife and the edge is corrected. Even the packaging is worthy of a $200 piece. I'm beyond impressed!"
