Great knife. I have 5 different knives from PKS and am not disappointed with any of them. Super sharp, I really like the handles and the Dirty by Design look. Highly recommend.
Very pleased with so far. Nice weight and good shape for the handle. Sheath is thick and heavy. Would recommend a dangler for a knife with a blade this long. Would recommend for anyone looking for a serious knife to work with.
Love the knife....does just what I need it to do....just need the sheath but was out
The blade width is a little narrower than I like but overall it’s excellent. I love the forged finish. A nice down and dirty get the job done blade.

Fits my bottle like a glove. As an added bonus I use it to keep me warm in winter outdoor sleepovers. Fill your bottle with hot water, slip it in the bag, and keep it with you in your sleeping gear...Many therms of warmth for several hours!
I could not be happier with this purchase. As other items I have from SRO the build quality is above average and solid as a rock.
Pot - Love the bat wing handles. My hands are average and there is plenty of room to fit all 4 fingers in with a glove on. No issues with getting a good grip on it. I have been using it on a canister stove and find that it sits sturdy when cooking since it has a wider bottom than cup type pot. I also like bail it comes in handy to grab it off the stove. I can’t wait to try it over a campfire with a tripod.
Stove – Great match Dave. Good idea to make it a little smaller. If you take it out of its pouch and just use a bandana you can lay it flat on the bottom of the pot and a gas can on top of it with room for the stem. The top will stick up just a bit, but the bag takes care of keeping it all together.
Bag – I like it a lot. It’s built well and should hold up under normal use. It is big enough that you can have the pot and sit a 110g can on top and it closes and does not leave a lot of extra bag flopping around.
Windscreen – It’s HUGE!!!! 12 panels. This thing will have no problem blocking the wind for the stove. Actually, I think it’s large enough to use around one of the square butane stoves a caterer uses. I can see using it as a small campfire heat reflector.
I see another poster mentioned this on the page for the pot alone. “Would love to see a 6-inch version of the camp skillet to go with it.” I agree with them it would make a great combination set / addition to this set.
The Ozark Trail 18oz Stainless Steele cup from Walmart (still only $6.00) nests perfectly inside the 1QT. pot. You can then fill the cup, take the stove out of its pouch, and lay it flat on top of the cup. The lid sticks up just a bit but once it’s in the bag and the gas can is on top of it, it sits snug.
I purchased this mattress to replace the foam mattress in my Canvascutter Bedroll, as the foam was too bulky to properly pack on a horse. This mattress compacts down to half the size, and is just as comfortable. It inflates and deflates properly without the use of a pump. It seems to be constructed very well. Great Mattress!
a awesome piece of equipment to have
As usual 1st class item & service.
