The blade is carefully heat treated to approximately HRC 62+ on the Rockwell Scale for dependable strength, hardness, durability, edge retention, and cutting performance.
The 4.5" blade combined with a substantial 4.0mm thickness provides excellent control and durability for skinning, field dressing, hunting, camping, outdoor utility, and general cutting tasks.
Scales & Handle
The handle combines natural ram horn and rosewood for a distinctive handcrafted appearance with natural variations in color, grain, texture, and character. Because both are natural materials, every Trailseeker handle will have its own individual appearance.
