Overview

Water rescue work is the situation this knife is built for. A stainless blade with a serrated edge and sheepsfoot shape is fitted to a reinforced polypropylene handle wrapped in rubber for grip.

Durability is the stated focus, with materials chosen to hold up against harsh outdoor conditions. It works for either hand and is reusable. The listing omits any mention of a sheath, a lock or a blade length.

Who it's for

Paddlers and water rescue crews who want a purpose-built knife with a rubberized handle are the audience. A camper who needs a plain slicing blade should look elsewhere.
