Battle Horse Knives Kepsu Fixed Blade Knife Maple BHK057

The Battle Horse Knives Kepsu brings a dependable, hard-working spirit to the field with a 3.75-inch 01 steel spear point blade finished in satin for reduced glare and smooth cutting action. Its geometry balances strength and finesse, giving you a tool that pierces cleanly, slices with authority, and handles camp chores with the steady, predictable feel that seasoned outdoorsmen count on. Whether you’re carving, prepping firewood, or tackling utility tasks around camp, the Kepsu delivers performance that doesn’t fall short when the conditions get rough. The full tang construction anchors every cut with solid backbone, keeping the knife steady and unyielding under pressure.

What sets this version apart is its maple handle. Warm in the hand and shaped for comfort, it brings a natural feel that synthetic materials can’t quite match. Maple offers a smooth, confident grip that settles in comfortably during extended use, and its organic character makes each knife subtly unique. At 8.5 inches overall and weighing 7.1 ounces, the Kepsu strikes a balance between manageable carry and reassuring heft, giving you a knife that’s agile enough for fine detail but stout enough for heavier work. A lanyard hole at the rear adds options for retention or customization, rounding out a handle that’s as functional as it is appealing.

A brown leather sheath comes standard, fitted with a sturdy belt loop that keeps the knife secure and ready at your side. Built for real field carry rather than decoration, the sheath protects the blade while giving you quick, reliable access when the job calls for it. Proudly made in the USA, the Kepsu embraces honest craftsmanship and a straightforward design meant for long-term use. It’s the kind of tool that earns your trust by working hard, not asking for attention.
