Overview

A locking sheath is the key part here: the OXO blade clicks in and stays put in a pack until it is needed. A soft grip handle with a bolster steadies the hand, and the Japanese stainless steel resists corrosion outdoors.

Safe carry is the case for it, since the sheath locks the blade in for hiking and travel. It is sized for peeling and paring, so bigger camp jobs need another knife.

Who it's for

Campers, hikers and travelers who prep fruit and vegetables away from home. People doing heavy camp chores should carry a larger blade.

Performance notes

Control comes from the soft grip and bolster, which hold the hand steady for fine peeling. The stainless steel resists moisture outdoors, and the locking sheath prevents the blade sliding loose in a bag.
