Knife Edge
Reviewed by Bettyann Nagy, Apr 06, 2002
"I really like these boots. I was leary to buy boots through the mail but LL Beans return policy is great. In fact, the first pair I got had a lining fault so I called them and they sent a new pair out in 2 days and postage for the faulty boots return."

Knife Edge (GTX, women's)
Reviewed by Julie Masi, Dec 29, 2001
"On paper, these books looked fantastic. And, maybe they are, for men, but I found the design and materials much too ROUGH for my feet, or rather the back of my leg, where the top of the boot met my leg. Despite trying short break-in times and thick soft socks, the boots were very painful."

Knife Edge (GTX)
Reviewed by Eli, Nov 17, 2000
"The roomiest, most cushioned, flexible boot I've ever worn, period. Soft out of the box- no break in time at all. Good traction, good ankle support. Waterproof. They also come in a non-GoreTex version, if you prefer.
The only negative: for people with wide feet, or people who like thick sox, they are great."

"I have just gotten a new pair of boots after using these for four years. They were comfortable enough to wear as my only shoe when traveling for weeks in Europe, and heavy duty enough to survive many hundreds of miles of hiking and packing trips. They finlly blew after two weeks in Utah and Co, the gortex quit working and the Utah sand tore the leather."

Knife Edge
Reviewed by Woody Leed, Jan 06, 1998
"Some of the most comfortable boots I've ever had and totally water proof (I put snow seal on them) But thats about it, the sole is very slipery and has no tred and it takes some time to make the toung fit so it woln't cut of your circulation.
Great boot for day hikes and light weekend backpacks but for long, heavy trips I wouldn't recomend this boot."
