Named for the cunning fox and designed with a minimalistic approach, the Made-in-the-USA Vulpine is the perfect survival knife when you need to travel light. Destined to be a favorite among outdoorsmen, soldiers, and survivalists who know they may find themselves cut off from help when they least expect it, The Vulpine Blade is ready to stand with you. The Vulpine Blade is small enough to throw in a pack or comfortably wear on your belt while being large enough to handle any needed survival task. Made from a single piece of phosphate coated 5160 medium carbon steel, it features a full tang and a hardness rating of 53-55 HRC. The Vulpine's blade length is 4.8" long with an overall length of 10.312" and a width of 1.8" to support prying. Weighing a mere 7.4 ounces, this knife is lightweight but tough—the ideal combination for truly extreme survival situations. The Vulpine Blade is kept secure in an incredibly durable, low profile sheath constructed from pistol-belt webbing. Designed to be a minimalist skeleton knife, The Vulpine Blade is able to incorporate a wide variety of handle configurations including twine, cord, or tape wraps, custom handle slabs, or as a bare skeleton blade. The knife includes 12 feet of paracord, which can be wrapped as a handle, woven into a lanyard, or threaded around the body of the sheath. Knowing the knife will be used in less than desirable conditions; OKC designed the handle with a bird's head shape at the pommel that can be used for digging, hammering, or striking. The knife’s profile also includes a drop hilt at the front of the grip under the blade for a secure grip and superior leverage. With all these features built into a simple package, The Vulpine Blade is ready for whatever you can throw at it.
