There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
As for dimensions, a lot of makers seem to exaggerate their blade thickness. According to my digital calipers this one is 4.95 mm, which is pretty darn close to the five mm claimed here. Good for MTech. The jimping is functional without being too aggressive and uncomfortable. The choil here is generous and very comfortable when choking up. The knife seems secure in hand and I don't see any need for a separate guard as a couple of other reviews have mentioned.
One thing I would suggest is for MTech to lose the slogan "Handcrafted in China" on these blades. They are factory produced in China and I probably wouldn't consider any of them to be "hand crafted" lol. At any rate, making a knife this good for such a price, I don't really begrudge them a little puffery. Buy this one, the 096, 151, and the MX8090, and you will have a pretty good arsenal of functional camp knives for very little money.
Here's a little tip for customizing it. I thought the G10 grips looked pretty good, but since I always seem to want to screw with (some might say "screw up") my Bowie knives - these grips seemed a bit "unfinished'. So I put a few drops of black dye into some Boiled linseed oil and rubbed these grips with it, followed by use of a hair dryer. The grips are now sealed and are quite black. I still have good control with them, and not slippery at all. I thinks it looks a bit better and it took all of five minutes to do. The heat from the hair dryer helps the linseed oil to penetrate and it is still secure and not slippery. I didn't even have to remove the scales to do this, since linseed oil wipes right off the steel.
That said, anyone going on a lengthy wilderness trip would want a knife like this along. It's massive enough to chop, chip, and sliver wood. It's long enough to baton in order to split wood.
Which reminds me: the specs. It's 14.25" long with 8" of that being sharpened blade. The blade is blackened with what I can only assume is black paint, not one of the more expensive coatings like Teflon or oxide.
The steel is described on the blade as "440" without a suffix of a, b, or c, which probably means it's 440a. This is the least desirable of the three, which would concern me on a smaller blade less dependent on size and weight for its effect. In fact, going to 440c or even a better steel might be wasted on this knife.
On another front, it's probably bigger and heavier than most soldiers would want to carry in the field, but it has obvious advantages for hand-to-hand combat. In a situation like that, the reach of an 8" blade can be a crucial advantage if the opponent has a 4"-5"-6" blade.
Because it's a clip point, the tip is plenty pointy and sharp. I might not want to try to pierce a car door with it—for which a tanto point would be better—but for piercing flesh, the clip point beats the tanto. Then there's the heft. It weighs nearly a pound (.98) so a chop or swing could also do very very serious damage.
Inexpensive knives are often not too sharp, but this came plenty sharp. A bit shy of Cold Steel or Kershaw sharp, perhaps, but given the heft it's plenty sharp enough. It passed the thumbnail test with flying colors.
Most knife people like fixed blade knives to be "full tang," where the blade metal goes all the way back to the back end of the handle. Well, this is almost a perfect example of a full tang knife. It's the blade/handle metal and two plastic plates to create the handle grip, plus fasteners, of course.
The main "con" after all the "pros" would be that the sheath is nothing to write home about. Too bad it didn't come with a Kydex or ABS plastic sheath. I'd have paid a few more bucks if it came with one. This is a Cordura sheath with a generously-sized belt loop.
BTW, in the photo it might look like I didn't line up the tip of the knife with the zero point of the measuring tape. I did while looking down at the knife, but I took the photo stepping back a bit, so you're just seeing a perspective effect.
It's a pretty good knife and well worth the price.

It's a pretty good knife and well worth the price.
they are not well heat treated. They "will" snap, chip, and break if you batton, chop trees, or throw it at wood. All these Chinese knives will, so don't do that.
If you use it like a cutting tool, it will last a life time, so use it like it was intended, to cut things. The handle is squarish but has a solid feel and grips well. I'm impressed with this MTech and its finish, but MTech always finishes their knives beautifully. Wish they would make all their fixed blade full tang knives, like this beauty here, and heat treat them better. I'd gladly pay another $10 for that. For $15, though, off Amazon, and free delivery, it is an excellent knife for the money. I'm using it for camping and whittling. It does come quite sharp and with a nice snap closure heavy duty nylon sheath. Can't go wrong with this one.
UPDATE:
One of my reasons for buying this knife was it resembled the TOPS, ALASKAN HARPOON knife. There are several differences but I like that knife's profile. Although the MT2039 isn't in the same ballpark of quality it is still a good blade I'm finding, for camping and even bushcraft tasks. Have fun with it.

Top reviews from other countries
Der Griff ist sehr solide und sehr bequem, und das Nylonfutter ist funktional.
Ich empfehle es allen, die ein sehr starkes, langes Outdoor-Messer benötigen, ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis!
first off, the blade isn't the lightest, so it provides a ton of chopping and hacking power. it isn't too too heavy, but the full tang and thick blade is in my opinion worth all of that. it came pretty sharp out of the box, in fact i was impressed how sharp it was right out of the box, i actually ended up accidentally splitting open my knee on accident with this knife. right through my denim and right into my knee and that was just from the blades weight. (no regrets though, accidents happen)
at 22 dollars, this blade comes with probably the most functionality you will get from a knife at this price. it is perfect for a survivalist, and will prove very useful to me this coming month when im camping. I look forward to batoning with this knife and seeing just how well it performs.
If you are undecided on if you want to purchase this knife, its pretty simple, are you on a budget? do you want a reliable knife that has a full tang? This knife is worth the money.
The knife is a little on the heavier side, so good to use as a hatchet - I used it mainly to chop firewood, and for general cooking, and fishing.
The knife was pretty sharp when I got it and kept its edge even after several hours of chopping wood. I chopped wood but using it to split logs, and it worked very well. It took a solid beating with wood during the process and feels like a full tang solid blade.
The handle is not super comfortable, but is OK.
Would readily recommend this product - for the price it can't be beaten.
