I'd like to thank my cousin Travis for giving me his old and trusted Spearfishing Omer knife 20 years ago, it has saved my life more than once.
Spearfishing knife considerations 2022:
Blade: dispatching capabilities. Strength. anti corrosion. I like half serration. Waiting for M390 super steel.
Handle: visibility, ergonomics, and grip
Sheath: effective Retention, ease of use. I don't like a rubber retention rings on top of the knife. Too much effort.
Scuba Choice Scuba Diving Low Volume Free Dive Spearfishing 7.5" Stainless Point-Tip Knife $12 93cm. wrong shape. A pointy knife is much better.
Promate Point Tip Scuba Dive BC Knife (3" Blade) $25 79cm wrong shape. Holster screws not recessed. Leg straps and belt attachment points
Scuba Choice Scuba 10" Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Point-Tip Dive Knife with 2 Knife Straps $28 120cm. Leg only and too big for leg.
SALVIMAR Predathor Knife, Acid Green. $34 67cm. Belt only atttachment and rusts. Grip and ergonomics are not good
Spearfishing Low Volume Point-Tip Sharp Dive Knife. $34. Only for leg straps 109cm. Leg strap only and not good corrosion resisistant
Cresie grip spear knife 6.8". Nicest short knife $33 79cm
SEAQUANTUM Scuba Diving Knife with Two Pairs Quick Release Buckle... $20 87cm no metal spring. Creado has better ergonomics and blade thickness but this is 8cm longer.
Koah Dive Knife 4.5" with Magnetic Sheath for Spearfishing, Diving,... $60 110cm x 19
high viz handle. Inovative magnetic sheath. Grip is not textured and bad ergonomics.
Riffe EDC (Every Dive Carry) Spearfishing Knife - 4.5 INCH $64 107cm x 19cm
Great blade design and size. Good corrosion resistance. Grip is outstanding. Great retention and ease of use. Leg and belt strap capable.

Mahalo Rudy, your in depth review could literally save lives. Just ordered the same knife myself. I almost died with a leg strap getting tangled in my shooting line at the end of a long breathe hold. Blade length, accessibility, and corrosion resistance are all such important variables for this tool 🤙🏽

Had the Salvi Predathotmr, nice little knife but only for small game. Mine broke inside a barracuda skull. Currently using the Salvimar Goemon. The cressi is good one too

My favorite thing about Riffe knives are the sheaths. They are designed for a loop bungee lanyard, to wrap around the bottom of the sheath. This uses the elasticity of the bungee to pull the knife into the sheath, adding another level of retention.

Great video! Thanks for posting. I’m still waiting for a custom maker to build the ideal dive knife. I don’t think very highly of any of the mass produced knives available.

I feel the same way. There is a lot of room for improvement before arriving to an ideal dive knife. I think M390 super steel is a good starting point.

You mean millimeters, which is mm, not cm, which is centimeters? A blade length of 107cm is almost 4 feet long, while 107mm is a little bit over 4 inches long.
