FKMD FX-601 SHERPA D2

Breakdown by BCT

A 5" DUAL GRIND DROP POINT made with K110 (D2) tool steel, black Idroglider coating (PTFE) on a stone washed blade. Micarta scales, generous finger choil, a FOX knives design.

For those who prefer their outdoor knives to made with D2, a long proven tool steel of considerable toughness and hardness and enough corrosion resistance not to be constantly wiping the blade dry.

HRC 59-61

Made in Italy

Strong point and sturdy construction

Comfortable to hold at only 12Oz.

Handle scale pattern provides a good solid yet comfortable grip

Flat ended pommel for comfort and less chance of damaging oneself if pressure applied to the butt end of this knife.

Dual grind pattern with a pseudo scandi grind, perfect for splitting timber

Thumb gimping can easily strike a fire steel (note fire steel oxidation marks (above image)  on blade).

It's possible to tie/fix this knife to a pole to reach/cut out of reach objects.

5mm thick spine easy to prepare food with.

Full leather scabbard last construction, featuring both vertical and horizontal carry options.
