The Half Face Blades Combat Filet Black G-10 Fixed Blade Knife combines premium American steel, durable materials, and purposeful construction in a streamlined design built for dependable performance. Featuring a 4-inch blade crafted from S45VN stainless steel, this fixed blade is finished with a durable Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating that gives it a sleek, all-black appearance. Measuring 8.5 inches overall with a blade thickness of 0.15 inches, the Combat Filet offers a practical profile suited for outdoor adventures, camp preparation, and everyday cutting tasks.
The S45VN stainless steel blade delivers 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. Its DLC coating adds a hard, wear-resistant surface while enhancing the knife's dark, understated aesthetic. Designed with utility in mind, the Combat Filet brings together practical proportions and quality materials in a fixed blade that looks as purposeful as it feels. Whether you're preparing camp supplies, handling routine cutting chores, or adding a dependable knife to your collection, this model offers a straightforward approach to everyday functionality.
The black G-10 handle complements the coated blade with a clean, uniform appearance. 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 design. The combination of black scales and a dark DLC-coated blade gives the Combat Filet a cohesive, no-nonsense look that fits naturally into a modern outdoor gear setup. 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 creating dependable, purpose-built tools.
Veteran owned and operated, Half Face Blades proudly manufactures its knives in the USA. The company emphasizes integrity, craftsmanship, and practical performance, 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 black DLC coating, textured black G-10 scales, and a durable Kydex sheath, the Half Face Blades Combat Filet delivers understated styling backed by American craftsmanship and a mission rooted in service.
