The Gahagan Customs Gael Versatile Fixed Blade brings the proven everyday functionality of the Alviss EDC into a compact Wharncliffe design made for practical carry. Lightweight, capable, and easy to conceal, the Gael is built for users who want the reliability of a fixed blade without the bulk. Its 3-inch Wharncliffe blade provides a useful cutting profile for everyday tasks, making this a versatile companion for EDC, outdoor use, and general utility work.
The 80CRV2 steel blade is .165-inch thick and finished with a tumbled parkerized treatment. This rugged finish gives the knife a subdued appearance while complementing its purpose-driven construction. Designed to handle the wear of day-to-day use, the Gael is a straightforward working knife that puts functionality first. The Wharncliffe blade shape offers a precise edge and controlled point, making it well suited to a variety of practical cutting chores.
An OD green G-10 handle provides a durable, lightweight grip with a distinctive look. Gahagan Customs has added a subtle fade throughout the scale, giving each knife an individual appearance. Because of the nature of the material and finishing process, the exact fade and coloration may vary, making every Gael slightly unique. At only 3.5 ounces, the knife is comfortable to carry without becoming a burden on your everyday gear.
Measuring 6.5 inches overall, the Gael maintains a compact footprint while providing enough handle for a secure and comfortable grip. A black Kydex retention sheath is included, giving you a dependable way to protect the blade and keep the knife accessible when you need it.
The Gael also reflects the experience and craftsmanship of maker Kyle Gahagan. His passion for knifemaking began at age 10 and eventually grew from a garage hobby into a professional craft. After serving with the 1st Ranger Battalion and completing tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, Kyle returned to knifemaking while building a family and business in North Carolina. He earned his ABS Journeyman Smith rating at the 2015 Blade Show in Atlanta and appeared on Forged in Fire in 2016. His work has also been featured in Blade Magazine, Knife Magazine, and other publications.
With its compact size, durable materials, comfortable grip, and practical Wharncliffe blade, the Gael Versatile delivers the kind of straightforward performance that Gahagan Customs is known for. It's a lightweight fixed blade designed to become a dependable part of your everyday gear.
