Hi Bob,

I have just received my Gatorback knives from you.

I would like to state that your knives are the best training knives that I have ever seen or owned.

Thanks mate for producing a quality product and a must for serious FMA artists.

This was the first training blade I ever purchased when I started my training, and it still is my favorite one to train with.

I love the weight and blade profile, and the realism of it is uncanny. It’s about the size of your average folder too, so the practicality of it really shines.

One of the best!

Dear Mr.Burgee,
I received the training knife in timely manner, actually sooner that expected which was great! The training knife is excellent, and the craftsmanship is very unique and of fine quality.

This blade has a very unique feel to it, more than likely due to the handle shape. A guy i spar with uses two and he swears by the design. the craftsmanship is top notch; i love the rigging wrapped handle.

Just received my ‘basic gatorback – rubber grip’ training knives. They are very lightweight and feel like wood training knives, despite being metal. The ‘rubber’ is a plastic sleeve (think heat shrinking wrap for car stereo wires) and can be somewhat slippery with sweaty hands. The finish is nice though and presents a realistic gleam.

The gatorback is a fairly large training knife and with my average size hands, I think my next set of training blades will be something smaller, but I think the gatorback is a good training knife to start with, especially if you are training with people new to disarms.

The transaction was exceptional from start to finish: received an email confirming my order, then another when the blades went production pending, then another when shipped with a UPS tracking number. Operationally, I was very satisfied with Edges2 inc.

The Gatorback training knife is one of the best training knives I have ever used. EDGES2, Inc. has really done a superb job with all of their knives. I own many of their knives and would always recommend them to my students and friends.
