Great Bushcraft Blade for $60

I have had the QSP Canary for about 2 months now. First handled it about a year ago and I cannot believe the price point at only around $50-$60 for this much material and performance.
Used it at the Yurt during my vacation to break down firewood for several bonfires and it maintained a good edge while doing so.
The handle has a slight swell to it which is very comfortable to hold and the droppoint/ spearpoint with a swedge (where the metal becomes thinner at the tip) makes it a good piercer!
This is about as beefy as I would want to get for a Bushcraft or camp Blade. Great size for handling larger task but also not seem too obtrusive while on the hip
Favorite part is the unique rotating belt loop system, first time I have received a sheath like this and I love the variety of positions I can change it to. The rotating does take some force so it’s not going to move unless you are really pushing it into position
Blade: Cr8Mo2VSi(equal to DC53)
Handle: black micarta
Overall: 9.00'' (228mm)
Handle: 4.75''(120mm)
Blade: 4.25" (108mm)
Blade thickness: +/-4.2mm ( finished product )
HRC: 59-61(1 HRC less if blade is black coated)
Net Weight: knife: +/-201g (7.09oz); sheath: +/-77g (2.72oz)

Haha fr, I keep asking myself “when are you ever going to use this”- the answer is either once or twice and gives me closure that I don’t need it…. Then buy it an hour later after I talk myself back into it lol.
