    @mtngoat, what clip is that? Would it work for a belt?

    I believe it would. I will have to look it up again, I had to add the holes, it was just designed to clip to molle webbing.

    I have been very impressed with my CR2.5! Very capable little blade.

    So @shaneadams90 i finally got around to snapping a few comparison pics of the CR2.5 my TOPS MSK 2.5.

    My thoughts after just handling both without using them is that with the CR2.5 having a slimmer and slightly shorter blade with a longer more hand filling handle that it'll be a little more comfortable deer and small game cleaning knife than the MSK. That said I LOVE my MSK and have carried it daily as a neck knife since receiving it for Christmas from my wife in 2016. I've found it excels for me in making fatwood feather sticks and most any tasks I've put it to. I'll plan to probably pickup a CR2.5 by next hunting season and at least keep it in my belt pack.

    @The Marsh Gorilla

    Great side by side comparison....I've cleaned a number of deer with the CR2.5 and I like that I can disarticulate joints and get up inside the chest cavity to but the trachea and release all the good stuff out of the abdominal cavity....the blade is long enough to do work without being so long that is is a liability to the other hand that is up inside the cavity....I've nicked (and CUT) myself with a larger knife and the cr2.5 just hits a great length for that type of work...

    Thanks for the comparison !

    No personal experience with them, but Luke was very responsive and helpful regarding the sheath and finish.

    Well my CR2.5 arrived today. Initial impressions, I Love It !! It’s a sweet little knife for sure. Just my style.
    Arrived nice and sharp and throws some great sparks off the spine too.

    I’ve got a kydex sheath coming for it Soon from 7 Rattles Bushcraft.
