Customer Reviews

For the griptilian lovers with medium-large meat mitts
Rian K. on Dec 9, 2019

I had originally bought the mini griptilian in early August and fell in love with it. The only thing that would constantly bother me is the size of the handle. As a man with medium meat mitts I felt the mini did not give me a great purchase and I was constantly trying to find a good grip. The full size came into my life and gave my medium sized hands the perfect home with no struggle to get a good grip on the handle. The other thing I noticed, the action is much better when opening and closing. The extra weight in the blade definitely makes opening and closing the full size much easier and more satisfying. As a wise man once said, "buttery smooth."

Great knife

I carry this when I want something a little bigger than the mini. Orange is good because it's hard to lose in the woods. Love it.

Surprised at the quality
Joseph D. on Jul 25, 2016

This blade is the sharpest I have ever seen out of the box. I really love the Axis lock. It's so smooth. And the blade steel is great. So I decided to try it. I thought I would hate the GRN handle scales. I actually like them. They are light yet a lot more durable than I expected. The blade is beautiful. It looks unreal how perfect it is. I can not find any flaws in the grinds. I didn't think it was worth the $100 until I bought it. I'm happy with my purchase.

Good blade and steel

I bought a Mini-Griptillian about 8 years ago that has been hiding from me for about 5 years. I decided to give it's big brother a chance to live with me. I was hugely disappointed with the stock scales and almost returned it. I added a set of G-10 scales and that made all the difference. It is now so solid and is one of my favorites. It's also a great fidget toy. It's now up there in price and quality with a couple of my 940's.
