In stock. Please allow 2-6 business days before shipment (namely when sheaths are added to the order). Photos are of the exact knife you will receive.
The Mountaineer is one of our versatile general-use bushcraft knives. The blade is long enough for batonning through wood logs and slicing meat/food, but is also short enough for controlled woodworking. The nearly spear-pointed blade paired with the ergonomic coke bottle contoured handle make this knife truly excellent for use in the wilderness.
This was a test blade for CPM 4V steel. It essentially came out of the testing with quite similar results to CPM 3V. On the datasheet, in short, 3V has more flex and shock absorption, and 4V has longer edge wear resistance. This one has a 62-64 RC hardness.
