The Defiant 7 Les George Galvo Fixed Blade Knife is a purpose-built cutting tool that combines premium materials, rugged construction, and the clean, functional design that has made Les George one of the most respected names in modern knife making. Designed for hard use while maintaining a refined fit and finish, the Galvo is equally at home as a dependable field knife, tactical companion, or everyday fixed blade for those who demand uncompromising performance.
At the heart of the Galvo is a 3.75-inch CTS XHP stainless steel dagger blade with a rugged dark stonewash finish. CTS XHP is known for its outstanding edge retention, high wear resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance, making it an ideal steel for a knife that's built to see regular use. The dagger profile provides a strong, symmetrical design with an acute point for precise piercing and controlled cutting tasks, while the dark stonewash finish helps minimize visible wear and reduces glare during use.
Built with full tang construction, the Galvo delivers exceptional strength and reliability from tip to pommel. The one-piece steel construction creates a solid platform capable of standing up to demanding environments while providing excellent balance and confidence in hand. Whether you're carrying it for outdoor work, utility tasks, or emergency preparedness, the full tang design ensures dependable performance when it's needed most.
The handle is crafted from durable green G10, a material trusted throughout the knife industry for its exceptional strength, moisture resistance, and dimensional stability. G10 performs exceptionally well in wet, dirty, and challenging conditions without swelling, shrinking, or degrading over time. The ergonomic handle shape provides a secure, comfortable grip that promotes confident control during extended use, while the green finish adds a distinctive look that complements the rugged stonewashed blade.
Measuring 8.75 inches overall, the Galvo offers an ideal balance between compact portability and practical cutting capability. The proportions make it easy to carry while providing enough blade length to handle a wide variety of everyday and outdoor cutting tasks. Its balanced design allows for comfortable use without unnecessary bulk or weight.
A custom-fit Kydex sheath is included, providing secure retention and reliable protection for the blade. The durable Kydex construction stands up to the elements while allowing for quick deployment and dependable carry. Whether attached to a belt, pack, or gear setup, the sheath keeps the Galvo readily accessible and protected during transport.
Designed by Les George and built to Defiant 7's exacting standards, the Galvo Fixed Blade Knife is a premium cutting tool engineered for serious users. With its CTS XHP steel, full tang construction, rugged G10 handle, and durable Kydex sheath, it's ready to perform wherever your next challenge takes you.
