Citadel is most well known for Japanese swords that retail for well over $2,000.00 and demand always exceeds the supply. The Citadel are the first folding knives I've carried, I always preferred fixed blades because I felt like they were stronger and more effective for almost any task, but I'm impressed. You really have to handle one to appreciate the construction. Plus they're lovingly crafted in every detail if you study close-up photos. Recommended. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
