• Overall length: 12" (30.48 cm)
• Blade: 7" (17.78 cm) black-coated, partially serrated, D2 tool steel with clip-point profile

The knife is designed to balance edge retention, toughness, and practical utility. D2 tool steel is renowned for hardness and wear resistance, helping the edge stay sharper longer under heavy use, while the black coating adds corrosion resistance and reduces reflectivity in active environments. The partially serrated edge expands cutting capabilities to fibrous materials like rope and webbing, complementing the straight edge for cleaner, precise cuts on everyday tasks and fieldwork. The clip-point blade shape offers good piercing performance and utility in both outdoor and work scenarios.
