With a bit more work it would be great
Blade shape very useful. Takes on most tasks well. Does need frequent touch up to keep sharp. Hilt is loose! Needles better fit or silver solder. Handle a bit short for all but smallest hands. Retention becomes a problem without a full hand grip. I like a higher ride of sheath as well.

few issues
the shape of the blade is great...sitting in the box it looks super..pick it up and its a hard fit to normal hands the handle is to small....the other issue is the butt end piece is loose..fixed blade knives should not rattle..mine does...i had expected better from a Hibben knife

Hand grip way to small
I love the Gil Hibben knife collection and have several of them and I love them. Having said that, this knife is a poor sample of the Hibben brand. The boot knife SHOULD HAVE been copied directly from the Alaskan knife which I have and love. This boot knifes handle, and I have small hands, makes it almost impossible to hold comfortably. Blade is great and sharp. Handle issue should be addressed.

Alaskan boot knife
Nice knife and sheath,the handle is very small I can only get 3 fingers on it.If you have child sized hands this is a great knife!

Hibben Alaskan Boot Knife
Neat, very well made little boot knife, A bit smaller than the Hibben Alaskan Survival knife. Blade sharp out of the box, good quality sheath. Only issue is if you have big hands, this knife handle may be too small. I have small hands, and the handle just barely fits in my hand. Other than that, love the knife. Tom from Hawaii.
