Yeah, the Davis Instruments 1551 Deluxe Rigging Knife is designed to handle marine conditions really well. From what we found in the manufacturer's product description and our research, this knife is made of stainless steel, which is meant to resist corrosion from saltwater environments.
So, it should stay in good shape and keep working fine even if you're out at sea a lot.
If you're curious about what's included, the knife itself comes with some handy tools like a marlinspike, shackle opener, and screwdriver—all pretty useful for tasks on a boat like tying knots or working with lines. However, it doesn't come with any extra accessories, so you'll have just the knife and its built-in tools.
In terms of usability, it seems like it's been well thought out. It has a locking mechanism to keep the blade secure and a comfy handle designed to help prevent slipping, which is nice when you’re dealing with wet conditions.
Just a heads-up, if you need anything beyond the built-in tools, you'd have to get those separately. Some people have mentioned there’s a bit of a learning curve with the marlinspike if you're not familiar with it, but they generally think it's a valuable tool once you get the hang of it.
So, all in all, this knife seems like a good pick if you're spending a lot of time on the water and need something durable and versatile.
