This blade is styled after a more traditional hunting knife, one that is ideal for skinning and field dressing. The relatively short handle and larger grip size allow for a firm yet ergonomic fit in your hand. The “coke bottle” shape of the grip makes for perfect indexing which will fatigue your hands far less than a basic smooth shape. These blades are tough and fill the roll of being a vital part of your pack when out in the woods, hunting or just going for a hike.
