Busse SYKCO WD5 Fixed Blade STNWSH Blade Resiprene C Handle Brown Sheath SYKCOWD5SW

At the core of the WD5 is a 5.25-inch blade crafted from deep cryo-treated AEBL stainless steel. This steel is well known for its excellent stain resistance, fine edge stability, and ease of maintenance, making it a dependable choice for outdoor use where moisture and hard conditions are part of the job. The thin-ground blade profile combined with a flat saber grind delivers outstanding slicing performance, allowing the knife to move cleanly through rope, food prep, camp chores, and general utility cutting with minimal resistance. The stonewashed finish adds a rugged, low-glare look while helping to conceal scratches and wear from hard use in the field.

With an overall length of approximately 10 inches and a blade thickness of around .100 inches, the WD5 is intentionally built light and fast. It carries easily, moves quickly in hand, and stays comfortable during extended use. The trail-ready geometry and War Dog-inspired design give it a natural, controlled feel that supports precise cutting without unnecessary bulk or fatigue.

The handle is made from Resiprene C, a signature Scrap Yard material chosen for its durability, flexibility, and all-weather performance. It provides a secure, slightly cushioned grip that remains reliable in wet, dry, hot, or cold conditions without requiring special maintenance. The ergonomic shape locks into the hand naturally, giving the user confidence and control through repetitive or detailed cutting tasks.

This package is completed with a 100% USA-made brown leather sheath built for strength and long-term durability. It features a right-handed belt loop that is triple riveted for added security, reinforced double stitching, and a clean, finished edge. Constructed from approximately 8 oz vegetable-tanned leather with no salts used in the tanning process, it delivers a traditional, rugged carry solution that matches the knife’s hardworking design philosophy.

The SYKCO WD5 Fixed Blade is built for those who want a reliable, low-maintenance cutter that performs consistently in the field, at camp, or around the home without unnecessary complexity.
