Old Timer Heritage Series 169OT 10.25in Fixed Blade Knife with Stainless Steel Drop Point Blade, Laminate Wood Handle, Full Tang Design, and Leather Sheath for Hunting, Camping, EDC, and Outdoors

I was looking for an affordable camping knife and was excited to see this one come up in D2, which is one of my favorite steels. The fit and finish are great for the price, the only potential problem is that the tang is slightly proud of the scales, which might cause a bit of pain trying to grip for long periods. I will change my review if the knife doesn’t hold up to abuse testing. Comes very sharp out of the box, not hair whittling but a good functional edge the glides through cardboard. UPDATE: I used some wet/dry automotive sandpaper (2000 & 3000 grit) to round any hard edges on the handle, it did not take very long and I was not aggressive to get it feeling great in the hand. The knife survived some very light batoning with no damage to the edge. Whittles just fine, but it is big enough I don't think it would be my first choice because of the increased risk of having such a long exposed edge. I'm happy to have found a good around the ranch work knife that won't need sharpened very often.

Just got the knife, so this is just an unboxing review. No surprises when i received it, it came exactly how it looks in the photos. It seems like a strong stout knife with about 4 mm spine and full tang. Jimping is done nicely and feels fine pushing with thumb. The blade has a very polished mirror finish, and came very sharp. D2 is stamped on the blade and the steel seems to be quite hard. The sheath fits tight and should work fine, although I think black leather would have looked much better than brown. The handle has a larger circumference than other knives of this length/size.

One of the best Old Timer fixed blades I've owned, D2 steel full tang, good jimping on the spine and on the handles, good grip fits and feels great,good overall size, good finish on the knife overall the leather sheath fits decent could be a little better fitment, and a good value.

Love this knife! I am a collector of knives so have quite a few. I love this one. I haven't battoned with it, though, so not sure about its durability, but it comes shaving sharp and the handle is comfortable. The blade is plenty thick and the shape is ample. The sheath is OK. Probably make a kydex one for it eventually.

I live on a sheep farm, we butcher sheep regularly. I have used several knives to butcher sheep. this knife has been very impressive. Depending on the knife I have to sharpen it between 1 and 4 times during the skinning and gutting process. I sharpen this knife once during the skinning and gutting, and once during the quartering and butchering. I have been thinking about getting another. I have chopped into sheep bones trying to quarter, and there are no chips in the blade. the handle is very large. I wear men's size large gloves, and my hand is still small for the handle. My mom has a hard time using this knife. If you need a large handled knife this is the perfect knife

Fit this knife in sale for 41 bucks... it is a good looking knife with a nice finish on the blade. The fit from handle to guard is a little clumsy but is functional. This is a chunk of steel also... thick heavy duty blade and looks like it can withstands some use. I'm not expecting the mirror finish on the blade to last forever but it looks nice when new and has a nice wow factor of you are giving it as a gift. I'm satisfied with this purchase.

The knife itself is excellent for the price. It’s a good sized piece of D2 steel. The grind was nice and even. Good edge geometry. Very comfortable handle. Good aesthetics as well. Handles general woodcraft tasks well. Nice and slicey as a general camp knife. Unfortunately, the sheath is of rough quality. Upon arrival it was so tight I had to use two hands to press the blade into it with a lot of force (enough that I took care not to cut myself if it pierced through). I put some mink oil on it, as I always do. The leather is of such low quality that it won’t readily absorb the oil. I had to heat it with a hairdryer and let it sit several days with the blade in and eventually it loosened up. Knife is 4 stars for the price. Sheath is 2 stars.

when I saw the name "Old Timer" I knew it was a quality piece I was looking at. This is on another level from what I expected. the blade is considerably thicker that many higher priced brands and feels like it will be with my for the rest of my life. fit and finish do suffer a little bit with the pins through the scabbard though, just a couple thousandths high. Enough to be felt, but should not create an issue going forward. Overall excellent fit, feel, and you should not be disappointed. My two pennies in this matter. Be blessed.

Just got. Quality knife. Feels like good purchase. Could shave with it!! Little heavy, if that concerns you. Would buy again!

La vdd muy bonito y sirve para todo tipo de uso muy recomendable

Muy buen cuchillo, excelente filo. Su funda muy bonita y bien elaborada. El acero del cuchillo de buena dureza, conserva mucho el filo.

Happy with this knife it feels good in the hand has good weight and balance, plus it’s polished nicely. Razor sharp you could shave with it. I applied 3 coats of oil to sheath letting each one dry after working the oil in to the sheaths in’s and out sides this takes a couple days but worth the time and patients. I recommend this knife. Thanks.

Excelente cuchillo, muy filoso acabados de primera acero aceptable, cachas de madera en tono gris Funda de cuero RECOMENDABLE
