Construction and materials

Built with 420HC stainless steel blade offering corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening. The plain-edge blade features a matte black coated finish for additional protection. Handle constructed with overmoulded rubber providing shock absorption and secure grip. Includes cast metal hand guard for enhanced safety during heavy-duty tasks.

Application and use

Designed for outdoor professionals, bushcrafters and survival enthusiasts requiring a reliable work knife. Suitable for rope cutting, wood processing and food preparation during field operations. The fixed blade design ensures immediate readiness without deployment mechanisms. Less suitable for EDC carry due to size and weight specifications.

Integration and compatibility

Supplied with nylon sheath for secure transport and storage. No locking mechanism or opening system required as a fixed blade design. The clippoint blade geometry provides versatility for both piercing and slicing tasks.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 420HC stainless steel requires minimal maintenance compared to carbon steels. Clean and dry after use to maintain the coated finish integrity. Regular sharpening with whetstones recommended to maintain optimal edge retention. Coating may show wear patterns with intensive use but continues to provide protection.
