Work Tuff Gear Steadfast
Work Tuff Gear have brought to life the Steadfast. A knife with hunting, survival and self defence capabilities according to it's designer Calvin Richardson of Calvin Richardson Custom Knives. Certainly it is nimble in the hand and comfortable using a lot of pressure to carve hardwoods such as birch.
The spine/tang thickness is 5mm
The design allows for easy penetration of the tip and the grip is comfortable when the knife is used in the safety position for carving.The Steadfast is slightly handle heavy with the fulcrum about at the first scale anchoring bolt past the hilt. So in other words the balance is at that point. For me it feels a tad handle heavy although this also signifies that there is plenty of metal under the grip and as such provides a "solid feel" to this knife. The reverse grip of this knife it is also very comfortable.
The blade is of a very useful design for camping, hunting and fishing, with a good tip as I have already mentioned, a sort of clip point. It cuts food items very well. The knife is supplied with a kydex scabbard with an excellent retention.
Basic specifications are:
HRC 58-60
Work tuff Gear have expertly produced a mirror finish convexed edge which easily bites into the toughest of materials. The steel choice is Böhler's K329 a stainless steel
which is:
Böhler's K329 also features high toughness, something which is vital for outdoor knives.
