Winkler Knives Forest Edge - Maple Handle

The Winkler Forest Edge is a no-nonsense belt knife that embodies the marriage of form and function that has made Daniel Winkler's blades famous. At 7.75" overall length, this fixed-blade, drop-point knife features a 3.25" long blade crafted from 80CRV2 high carbon tool steel - Winkler's preferred steel stock. Using 80CRV2 high carbon steel gives the blade elite flexibility, toughness and edge retention at a significantly lower price point than alloy steel. With a heat treatment at 57 HRC, and holds a razor-sharp edge cut after cut, through all sorts of punishment. The choiled blade and sculpted maple handle meet to fit comfortably in your palm, while the engraving on the thumb rest of the blade allows for precision and controlled cuts. The black oxide finish provides added corrosion protection, while the full-tang design is fitted with maple scales for a versatile, elegant, and classic look. The lanyard hole rivet is perfect for carrying options and bushcraft with the use of paracord, and the felt-lined kydex and leather sheath will feel as at home on a tactical harness as it does on your belt.

The contoured maple knife handles are durable and offer the timeless look that Winkler's knives are known for. The handle on the Forest Edge is made with a taped full tang for superior in-hand balance. In addition, the Winkler Forest Edge also includes an attractive custom-made brown leather sheath that hooks to your belt, an engraved rest on the blade spine for a secure grip, a lanyard hole in the handle for hanging or carrying, and an integral guard. These features improve the overall safety, comfort, and functionality for the user.
