The Half Face Blades Cav Jr OD Green G-10 Fixed Blade Knife combines premium American steel, durable construction, and distinctive styling in a compact package built for dependable performance. Featuring a 3.5-inch S45VN stainless steel blade with an acid-splash finish created through acid etching, this fixed blade stands out with a unique, rugged appearance. Measuring 7.5 inches overall with a blade thickness of 0.14 inches, the Cav Jr delivers practical proportions suited for everyday utility, outdoor adventures, and demanding field tasks.
The S45VN stainless steel blade offers an excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance, making it a premium choice for users who expect lasting performance from their gear. The acid-splash acid-etched finish gives the blade a distinctive, textured-looking pattern that sets it apart from conventional finishes. Combined with the knife's Cerakote finish, as specified for this model, the blade carries a bold, purposeful aesthetic. The exact relationship between the acid-splash treatment and Cerakote finish may depend on the manufacturer's finishing process.
The OD green G-10 handle complements the blade with a clean, understated outdoor look. Known for its strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to moisture, G-10 is well suited for knives intended for regular use in varied conditions. The textured grip helps provide traction and control, while the Allen bolt construction adds a functional mechanical detail to the handle's streamlined design. The contrast between the OD green scales and the distinctive acid-splash blade gives the Cav Jr a rugged appearance without unnecessary embellishment. An included Kydex sheath provides a durable carrying solution, helping keep the knife secure and accessible when it's needed.
Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, whose connection to the outdoors began during his childhood hunting, camping, and fishing in Northern California. After high school, Arrabito joined the Navy and went on to serve with the SEAL Teams. His overseas deployments and years of operational experience shaped a core belief: a knife must do more than look good; it must perform when it matters. That philosophy continues to guide the company's approach to designing dependable tools for real-world demands.
Veteran owned and operated, Half Face Blades proudly manufactures its knives in the USA. The company emphasizes purpose, integrity, and craftsmanship, creating tools for military professionals, hunters, outdoorsmen, and everyday users who value reliable equipment. Its commitment extends beyond the workshop, with a portion of sales supporting charities and foundations that honor those who've served and sacrificed.
With American-made S45VN stainless steel, a distinctive acid-splash acid-etched blade, textured OD green G-10 scales, and a durable Kydex sheath, the Half Face Blades Cav Jr combines standout styling with purpose-driven American craftsmanship.
