JokerHunting Knife Ember Scandi CL122-P, with leather Sheath and Fire Starter included, blade 4.13 inches of Sandvik steel 14C28N, Tool for fishing, Hunting, camping and hiking

I do a lot of camping, hiking, hunting, etc, and my knife is one of the most important tools I carry. In fact, its THE most important thing I carry. Over the years, I have amassed quite a collection of knives that range from the cheap to the quite expensive. They all have their place, but I'm always on the look out for knives that offer both quality and are reasonably priced. This seems like it wouldn't be that tall of an order in a world with so many knife manufacturers, but in fact, it's actually a rare thing. Recently I've been buying and trying out these Joker knives, and honestly, I'm impressed. The steel is quite good, the ergonomics are amazing, the designs are classic and the fit and finish are better than knives for twice the cost. Seriously...buy on one of their knives now. My most recent purchase was the Joker Ember Scandi Grind. I've carried it on several trips now, as well as just using around the house. It's an excellent blade. The dangler style sheath that came with it is nice leather and seems well built. The olive wood scales on the knife itself are beautiful and are shaped to what I would consider the perfect grip. I really can't say enough about this knife.

The first ember i bought had a little roll on the blade. Very easy to remove, the knife was hair shaving sharp and the handle is beautiful. I used the first for 3 weekend backpacking trips with my father. He used it more than I did, it was always in his hand. See how much he liked the knife I bought a 2nd one to gift to my dad. I also have the bushlord. In the photo you can see the lovely handles currently drying from a flax oil application. The knife is solid and the handle shape allows for hours of use without hand fatigue. The fit and finish of the knife is amazing also.I highly recommend this knife.

Initially bought the micarta version. It was nice but had a slightly off grind so I returned it for the curly birch one. Wow! It’s really good. Great ergonomics and blade geometry. The wood was a bit dry so I gave it a few coats of linseed oil. Really makes the figure in the wood shine. Well worth the money. Handles wood processing tasks extremely well. Fit and finish are quite good. Comfortable to use. Buy it.

The durability, comfort size, sharpness / edge of this knife helps with performance. My husband loves the quality of this knife. He purchased our adult son one.

First one I received had a hair thickness gap between one handle scale and tang from the pommel to about halfway up the handle, and the other scale had the same kind of gap from the pommel about about 1" up the handle. I could see light through these gaps on both sides. For the price this was completely unacceptable to me so I had Amazon send me a replacement and I returned the defective one. Replacement does still have a gap on one scale, but it only extends about 3/4" from the pommel end. I still think for $130 I should get a knife without such a floating QC flaw, but I'm willing to accept this issue given the headache it would be to get another replacement. Worst case I rehandle it down the line. Otherwise, this is a beautiful knife with a great design, quality sheath, and both I got hands on came shaving sharp. Will update review if I have any further issues.

I own an Ember and a Campero. The quality is great at the price point for both. I find the Sandvik steel to be durable. I’ve had no issues with corrosion in 9 months. Edge retention is fairly good, and I just need a few seconds on a strop to make it razor sharp again. I primarily use the Ember for outdoor woodcrafting. The leather sheath is excellent. The only negative is although the fit and finish is superb, the scale/liner has a hair width gap between it and the steel in one spot. That’s not a major concern though.

Razor sharp. Lots of folks say a blade is razor sharp. This is what they mean and few I’ve ever held matches this blade. Be careful flicking your thumb on the blade to test the sharpness as you might pull back a bloody thumb. Fantastic sheath and I got the one with the fire starter ferro rod. Everything fits tight in the sheath and comes with their removable dangler. Had to get the curly birch. I mean it’s so beautiful so why not, eh? Fit and finish are superb. If you’re on the fence, go ahead. I doubt you’ll be unsatisfied with this one. When you look at it, it just says, “Now that’s a bushcraft knife!”

I have bought two Joker knives in the past 3 months. One is really sharp, and this one is really NOT which is contrary to most of the YouTube I watched online. Very disappointed.
