SHOP CASE KNIVESThe DailyCarryCo Garuda Fixed Blade Knife is a rugged tool built for decisive cutting and everyday readiness. Named after the Garuda—the mythical bird known for speed, strength, and vigilance—this knife mirrors those traits with purposeful geometry that makes confident use feel almost instinctive. Its blade options include a tactical hook or a classic drop point profile, each designed to put power where you need it whether you’re opening boxes, slicing cordage, or tackling camp chores.
The heart of the Garuda is its 14C28N stainless steel blade. This steel offers a reliable blend of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening that’s well suited to a true everyday carry tool. You get a cutting edge that holds up under repeated use and steel that stands strong against the elements without unnecessary fuss. The blade’s profile strikes a balance between utilitarian utility and tactical readiness, making it versatile enough to handle both daily tasks and heavier work.
Ergonomics are central to this design. The handle draws from karambit-style cues, with a secure ergonomic shape and a finger ring at the base that allows rapid deployment right from the pocket or sheath. With a natural, locked-in grip that reduces hand fatigue and improves control, the Garuda feels reassuring whether you’re holding it for a few quick cuts or longer, more demanding jobs.
This knife comes with a custom-molded Kydex sheath and a standard belt clip for straightforward carry. Durable G10 handles add texture and long-term resilience, and the overall build conveys a no-nonsense attitude that’s ready to work.
