Description
Unique Nessmuk-Style Knife Shape
Evolving from the classic Drop Point, our Nessmuk-inspired blade features a distinct hump near the tip, a deep belly, and an upswept point. This refined geometry excels at a variety of camping chores, from precisely slicing food and effortlessly skinning game to processing kindling. It's the ultimate all-in-one cutting tool for the wilderness.
Improves Grip With Use, Ages With Character
Made from layered natural fiber and resin, this Micarta handle is precision - machined with our distinctive Flint Texture. The initial gritty surface offers an exceptionally secure grip that.Its unique composition ensures long-lasting durability and a distinctive appearance that evolves over time.
Forged for Excellence, Designed for Mastery
The blade adopts the exquisite laminated steel forging technique. Its core is made of hard 100Cr18MoVCo steel, ensuring exceptional sharpness and edge retention. The core is clad on both sides with more flexible soft steel layers. This sandwich structure intelligently balances the knife’s performance: the rigid core provides cutting power, while the resilient outer layers effectively absorb impact, preventing chipping or breaking — achieving a perfect harmony of hardness and toughness.
Precision Control and Safety
The multi-stage jimping on the spine offers precise control for detailed work and improves safety by preventing slips, guaranteeing a secure and comfortable grip in diverse cutting situations.
Lightweight and Versatile
The skeletonized tang, with its integrated steel core running from the blade tip to the handle end, guarantees extreme strength. Weight-reducing holes in the handle lighten the overall load without sacrificing structural integrity. Furthermore, these hollow holes double as versatile attachment points for lanyards or straps, improving both carry options and safety.
Ergonomic and Fatigue-Reducing
The specially designed sloped guard and finger grooves are shaped to match the hand's natural grip. This provides solid support and enables efficient transfer of force from the arm to the blade tip, significantly minimizing hand fatigue during precision work or prolonged use.
