Assault Tactical Knife – 19cm Bowie knife with 7Cr13 stainless steel blade

The Assault Tactical Knife is a fixed-blade Bowie knife featuring a 19.05cm clippoint blade made from 7Cr13 stainless steel. This outdoor knife combines a satin finish with a plain-edge cutting surface, delivering a total length of 30.48cm and weight of 200g.

Construction and materials

The blade utilises 7Cr13 stainless steel with a satin finish that provides corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal. The clippoint blade profile offers versatility for both piercing and slicing tasks. The handle features chrome accents, contributing to the knife's distinctive appearance whilst maintaining functional grip characteristics.

Application and use

This Bowie knife suits outdoor activities including bushcraft, camping, and survival scenarios. The 19.05cm blade length handles tasks from wood processing to rope cutting. As a fixed-blade design, it provides structural integrity for heavy-duty applications where folding mechanisms would compromise strength.

Integration and compatibility

The knife includes a leather sheath for secure transport and blade protection. With its 30.48cm total length, it requires dedicated carry solutions rather than pocket carry. The plain-edge configuration allows straightforward sharpening with standard whetstones or sharpening systems.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 7Cr13 stainless steel requires minimal maintenance – rinse and dry after use to prevent corrosion. Regular sharpening maintains optimal cutting performance. The satin finish masks minor scratches from regular use, extending the knife's aesthetic lifespan.
