From the manufacturer
PENDLETON LITE HUNTER
Over the years our Pendleton Hunters have become enormously popular, and many people have asked us for a more affordable Pendleton that will accommodate just about anyones budget. In appearance, the Pendleton Lite Hunter strongly resembles Lloyds classic functional designs, with a practical drop point blade, modest guard, hollowed bolster area, and a flared butt to aid retention in slippery and inclement conditions. The only major changes were the adoption of subzero cryo quenched German 4116 Stainless steel and the use of high-impact polypropylene for the handle. If you are looking for a dependable and award winning hunting / utility knife that will serve you well for years to come - then you would be hard pressed to beat the Pendleton Lite Hunter.

First off is the size, the Cold Steel lite hunter is for me the perfect size for a fixed Blade EDC knife, now for some it may be two larger for this role, but for me its perfect, the knife and sheath sit comfortably in my pocket with only the very tip of the grip protruding, the knife is so thin that it does not bulge uncomfortably or conspicuously and the sheath, basic as it might be has a decent amount of texture to elicit just enough friction to stay in my pocket as I draw the blade. The second part of this knife that I just can't shake is the grip. While it is true that it is just textured plastic, It has been said that a well designed knife grip would still feel secure in hand even if it were made out of glass and covered in oil, and to this point I must agree. The Pendleton Lite hunter's gip shape is fantastic, it fits my hand perfectly, not so small as to feel unstable, yet not so large that it makes gripping at certain angles uncomfortable. (I wear a large Mechanix Glove if that helps for size estimate) THe cut outs in the grip are indicative of the minimalist, function first design of the whole knife, and none of them seem to be there for anything other than the purpose of increasing the knifes ability to grip in a number of different hand positions. This comfortability of the grip in conjunction with the cut-outs ensures positive grip retention even when wet or soapy (yes I checked) and if this were not enough the plastic seems primed for some DIY stippling (like many polymer handgun grips are today). Finally the blade itself, again all functionality and simplicity here, 4116 Stainless a decent blade steel, not perfect but very easy to sharpen even for the inexperienced and durable enough to hold a decent edge for a while. The shape itself is again perfectly simple, drop point, in my opinion the most versatile and utilitarian shape well fit for this knife's purpose.
It is Inevitable that this knife would find itself compared to the Mora line of knives of which I have had several, they are also low cost high value hunting knives around the same size and quality. However I will say that I feel the Pendleton Lite Hunter to be a better knife for the money than say a Mora classic or even a Mora Companion. While it is true that the majority of the Mora use carbon steel which is preferably in my opinion than stainless for a knife blade, I do feel that the for the money the other aspects of this knife have won me over from its Mora counterpart. A good comparison would be between the Glock and Springfield XD. The Pendleton Hunter would represent a Glock, is it the best gun, while some may believe so it isn't, could you spend quiet a bit more and get an H&K 45 or a Sig p226 yes, and they would most likely be a better gun in terms of fit and finish and available features. However what does Glock represent? Simplicity and reliability both characteristic it shares with the Pendleton Lite Hunter, while it may not be the best option, it does represent a fantastic value for a simple and reliable product. The Mora Companion could then be compared to a Springfield XD, is it any better than the Glock? Some say yes, others no, they are very similar yet each offer different features, the Mora features a thinner Carbon Steel blade with a Scandinavian Grind and a plastic/rubber grip combo and a plastic sheath. THe Pendleton has a thicker stainless blade, more conventional grind, plastic handle and Cod-ex sheath. Ultimately it comes down to which better fits your needs, you can't go wrong with either, I would encourage you to find a store near you that has both and handle them to see which you find to be more ergonomically comfortable but for my choice I will be purchasing Pendleton Lite Hunters for myself and others from now on, I don't think would find it anything less than exceptional if you were to purchase one either.
I decided to keep the knife and maybe over time it'll loosen up the lock up. I didn't want that to be a deal breaker for me. I think the knife is really solid. Hopefully it'll be easier getting it in and out of the sheath with use.

Und das ist genau das, was mich wundert. Denn ich besitze noch das Cold Steel Modell "Survival-Edge" mit der gleichen Stahlsorte, dem Krupp-4116. Aber dieses Messer will einfach nicht scharf werden. Und was habe ich schon daran herumgeschliffen. Keine Chance. Es wird einfach nicht scharf.
Das Lite-Hunter ist dagegen ein Killer, hat aber doch (laut Angabe) auch nur den 4116.
Ich habe daher etwas Angst, daß ich es nicht wieder so scharf bekomme, wenn es mal stumpf wird.
Aber so wie es jetzt ist, ist es genial.
Meine Empfehlung:
Kaufen, solange noch welche da sind und bei dem Preis am besten gleich zwei. Es lohnt sich. Versprochen.
