The 1095 high carbon steel takes a sharp edge and is straightforward to sharpen in the backcountry, while the tanto point provides strong piercing capability for puncturing cordage, tarp ties, or light armor-like materials in a pinch. The hollow grind on one side reduces weight and enhances slice performance without compromising strength. The micarta handle’s textured surface stays grippy in wet or dirty conditions, and the drilled hole design gives you an optional lanyard for added security during rigorous activities. The included Lansky sharpener keeps the blade in fighting shape between carries, and the durable Kydex sheath ensures safe, rapid access on a belt or pack. Crafted in the USA, this knife reflects practical design, robust construction, and a focus on real-world reliability for outdoor enthusiasts and professionals alike.
