SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Battle Horse Knives Kepsu is built for users who expect their gear to shoulder real work without complaint. Its 3.75-inch 01 steel spear point blade carries a satin finish that won’t glare in the field and offers the kind of dependable toughness that seasoned woodsmen trust. With a geometry that balances piercing capability and clean slicing performance, the Kepsu handles fire prep, carving, food tasks, and utility chores with the same steady confidence. The full tang design reinforces its strength from end to end, giving the blade a solid, controlled feel that doesn’t waver when the work gets heavy.
Green Micarta scales wrap the handle, offering a rugged, grippy texture that stays dependable in wet, cold, or dusty conditions. There’s a lanyard hole shaped into the rear for added security options, and the entire knife settles naturally into the hand thanks to its balanced 8.5-inch overall profile and 7.1-ounce weight. It’s substantial enough to inspire confidence yet compact enough to stay nimble when fine work demands precision.
A brown leather sheath comes standard, fitted with a sturdy belt loop so the knife rides securely at your side. This isn’t decorative leather—it’s working gear built for daily carry, shaped to keep the knife protected and accessible whether you’re in camp, on the hunt, or handling chores around the homestead. Proudly made in the USA, the Kepsu reflects a straightforward, purpose-built design that values honest performance over flash. It’s the kind of knife that earns trust by doing exactly what it’s asked, day after day, year after year.
