Long ago, I got into buying fixed-blade knives and multi-tools. I don't buy the expensive ones, I go for the ones that are affordable, durable, and reliable. I also like the small form factors fixed blades, because I include them in IPAKs (Individual First Aid Kits) that I put together for myself, and my family members.

In the winter of 2014, I bought the SE Outdoor Tanto Knife with Firestarter - KHK6320 from Amazon, At that time I was looking for a cheap knife that I could stick inside my Lowepro Flipside 400 AW Camera bag. At that time, I shot a lot of high school sports, and I found that it is always helpful to have a knife handy than a multi-tool. Another reason I bought it is the price, it was less than $7. I didn't expect much, but, it has proven itself after so many years of usage.
First, let me tell you some key facts about this knife. The SE Outdoor Tanto Knife with Firestarter - KHK6320 is a versatile and affordable tool that can come in handy for outdoor enthusiasts and survivalists alike. The knife has a full-tang stainless steel blade with a thickness of 4mm and a length of 7 inches. The blade shape is a Tanto, which is ideal for piercing, sawing, and cutting. The handle is wrapped in a nylon rope which makes it easy to grip and can actually be useful in a pinch. The knife comes with a fitted nylon sheath so it won’t cut your things if you throw it in a bag.

In addition to the knife, the package also includes a magnesium alloy firestarter. To use the fire starter, you need to run the knife against it. This then throws a lot of sparks – more than many similar designs in fact – and these can be used to start a fire if you have a pile of flammable materials. I have not tried using this particular ferro rod, but it seems like the others that you can buy anywhere else.

I've had this knife for 9 years, now and it is still as reliable as ever, I have maybe sharpened it 6 times, and it holds its edge for an extended period of time. One thing I don't like about this knife is, it hurts my hand if I use it for a long time. One thing I want to do with this knife is to replace the nylon rope with a paracord, this may make it easier for my hand to grip and won't hurt so much. The paracord is more durable than the nylon rope.
