I don't use it to cut things very often though, as I just use a Swiss Army Knife for every days stuff like opening boxes. I have never had to worry about it thought, the bade has never required any real care because the finish has held up well and it has kept its edge.



    I did wrap the handle and it helped me grip the blade a little more securely. I have a large hand, but the Enyo still feels good and is easy to grip. Bottom line, I really like the Enyo and like the sheath that comes with it.

    I really want to find a trainer for this thing, but have not had any luck.
    Nice!

    That would be very interesting to see.

    I owned one and sold it. The choil was too shallow for my tastes. My index finger got cut when my hand slipped forward.

    I bought one of these instead:

    Any other reviews on this knife? Looks like a good knife but the last post here makes me worry some.

    Did you pick one up jellybean?

    My advice is to try before you buy. My sample of 1 was a very nicely made knife. It just didnt fit my hand.

    I currently carry a Phobos for defensive EDC (the Phobos is Spartan's pre-Enyo neck knife). I think the holster is great for horizontal belt carry.

    I will say I've come to appreciate a thinner blade for utility EDC tasks (I also carry a folder for these tasks). YMMV, probably more important if you plan on using your EDC for food prep.

    From my short period of time with it I can tell you it had a wickedly sharp edge that held quite well.

    The sheath was great and the single belt loop allowed the knife to move and readjust easily when sitting or standing (IWB) use. Size was fine for me.

    Also curious if you got one OP. I just ordered one to replace my G19 when I move. There's a video from SHOT 14 on YouTube that is pretty interesting. I'm excited to try it as I've never had an EDC or fixed blade knife.
