Product Description
An integrated approach to camping/survival/rescue. Developed by Tool Logic, the SL3 is a complete survival kit weighing only 78 g (2.7 oz). A razor sharp blade with a spear point shape, an all-weather FireSteel fire starter and a loud emergency whistle makes the SL3 the natural choice for all outdoor activities. The blade has sufficient curve for most field chores and can be opened and closed with one hand. The 50/50 serrations add utility in both cutting and sawing. The SL3 is not only well thought out, it is rugged enough to live up to its slogan - Built for Life.

 Very cool! Also has undocumented features. March 11, 2007

This works as advertised, although it takes some practice to start a fire with just a spark. Some features that aren't in the description: the compartment on the back will hold a Mag-Lite Solitaire - that's the little single AAA flashlight, or you can pull the fire starter rod out of the lid and use the compartment as a waterproof container (matches, anyone?) or pill box! Cool! It is made in Seki Japan, the same place where most Spyderco knives are made. The blade is 420J2 stainless. The liner lock is easy to operate one-handed, and the whistle is LOUD. I'm very pleased with it. A great deal for all it does.
What a Great Knife! September 1, 2007

I think this knife is a delight. It has so many great features packed into a small space. The blade is incredibly sharp. According the package it's 420J steel from Seki in Japan. The FireSteel works like a charm. Rather than use the notch in the blade, I use the back of the blade. It seems to work even better and I like having the knife closed while firestarting. It's a got a whistle, a glow-in-the-dark lanyard, and a belt clip. Very handy. My favorite trick is that the firesteel storage area perfectly holds a MagLite Solitaire Mag Instrument Magritte AAA Solitaire Flashlight, Blue #K3A116. This puts a bright light on whatever I'm cutting.
Like a survivial kit in one small package! September 2, 2007

This is a great tool to carry around if you spend alot of time outdoors...it has a great Swedish Firesteel incorporated in the handle....you can start a fire (or at least make some great 5000 degree sparks to impress your mates). I've also used the signal whistle.
Great knife and extras too!!! November 18, 2007

I've tried other Firesteel products and this is the first one I've gotten with a survival knife along for the ride. Tool Logic makes the knife part and I've used it on a coupld camping trips this year. Now I don't have to carry a separate Swedish Firesteel cause its incorporated in the handle.

I'm only an occasional backcountry outdoorsman. However, the knife that I received was very sharp and has held the edge reasonably (although I didn't buy this for everyday use and don't use it as such, I carry a folding razor knife for that). In addition, the Firesteel sheds showers of sparks with just one draw of the back of the knife across it. I cringe at the thought of scrapping the sharpened blade across any kind of metal or abrasive surface other than a diamond hone. The way I see it, for a little more money I got a knife with the Firesteel that I would have bought anyhow, and received a usable knife that keeps both in the same package. This also creates for less chance of losing or not being able to easily find the Firesteel. The little plastic piece at the end of the lanyard even glows, although faintly, to make it easier to find in the dark. Great design and tool for the price.
