Hollow handle knives don't get the best press as a rule, some obviously are better than others. This is one such example, it's more sturdily put together than l was expecting, glad l bought it especially for the price.
These knives have obvious limitations but if you use properly and don't abuse them they're much improved over the ones from the 1980's.
The handle is a metal tube with a rubber over moulded grip, it feels decent quality and comfortable in the hand with a heavy duty alloy screw on pommel.
The survival kit in the handle is basic but there is ample room in the handle to add to it or replace with your own.
