Made from hyper-durable 8Cr14MoV steel with a grippy G10 handle, this tactical blade will join your EDC rotation without breaking a sweat. Its curved blade gives a noticeable mechanical advantage while lopping through tasks. This capability, in tandem with a razor-sharp edge, means slicing through thick roots in the garden, cleaning a catch at the campsite, and slashing through a seatbelt in an emergency are all way easier than they would be with a straight blade.

The construction is also top-notch here, with a grip ring for an uncompromising hold, a liner lock for safety, and a handy one-handed quick-opening mechanism. The 'hook' on the spine of the blade is a 'pocket-opener' mechanism that might take some (careful) practice to master: instead of using your thumb to slide the blade out, it's possible to catch the edge of your pocket with the hook and open it fully in one motion.
