Tuck this brawny-yet-compact knife in your pack or pocket and head off into the wilderness equipped to skin game, peel tent poles, baton branches – even build an emergency shelter using the paracord handle wrap. The thick 3mm, D2 steel blade has the muscle to puncture, pry and carve without breaking. Durable glass-reinforced nylon handle is waterproof, rugged and scratch resistant. A thumb stud with IKBS ball bearing pivot deploys the blade in a snap, and an incredibly strong Deadbolt® mechanism (the invention of iconic knife designer TJ Schwarz) locks the blade at the ready to chop, hack and whittle any job down to size.
