It definitely does the job in its name. Would like to have a better lock-in mech than the o-ring type.

This is the one to get. Small, sharp stiletto type blade with one serrated side. My brother had the bigger knife and everything about it is worse. The sheath doesn’t hold well and the grip is smooth hard plastic unlike the standard Kona which has a better sheath and a grippy hard rubber handle. Not sure what they were thinking with the long blade but it’s half the useful knife the standard is.

No-nonsense full metal tang of decent steel sharpened out of the box to a point... Oh and its all made in Italy with great quality plastic and rubbers plus an extra keeper piece in case the original ever snaps. Mako spoiling us here.

This knife is exactly the same as the Koah knife I purchased for twice the cost. The only difference between the two is a magnetized case that Koah provides. I would love to see Mako offer the magnetized case for the knife but even as is this is a great value!

This knife has performed wonderfully. Even better, I used the knife to fillet the fish I speared every day. The blade is really sharp. I hope it will be able to be sharpened and hold an edge. So far, though, I couldn't be happier with this knife.

Lightweight and sharp. Secure sheath with quick access.

Love this little knife. Very useful for diving. I’ve bought 3 for my family! They love them!!

Very good

A simple classic design that just works for dispatching fish, filleting, etc.

Much better than the titanium dive knife. This knife has a rubber strap that holds it in place so if something hooks the knife it does get lost as easily. The titanium has a very poor design. You can just pull it right out of the case. The titanium has a push-button to keep it in but mine was super weak and ended up cost me the titanium knife first swim use. Go with the Kona kill knife for sure.

Perfect size

This knife has done everything I have needed it too.
