The Half Face Blades Congressman Desert Ironwood is the kind of knife that speaks to both tradition and tactical edge, blending timeless materials with modern performance in a profile that’s sleek, functional, and unmistakably refined. This is a fixed blade built for professionals, collectors, and anyone who values exceptional design paired with hard-use capability.

At the center of the Congressman is a 3.8-inch spear point blade made from premium CPM S45VN stainless steel—one of the finest steels available in American-made knives today. Known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness, this steel holds up through rigorous use while maintaining a sharp, clean edge. The spear point profile offers a symmetrical shape with a gently curved belly and a strong, tapered tip, making it a versatile option for slicing, piercing, and detailed cutting tasks. It’s a blade that performs just as well in controlled environments as it does in the unpredictable outdoors.

Finished in a deep Black Armor Cerakote, the blade isn’t just eye-catching—it’s protected. This ceramic-based finish enhances the steel’s durability while offering excellent resistance to abrasion and corrosion. It also keeps reflection to a minimum, making it ideal for tactical carry or discreet use in the field.

What sets this version of the Congressman apart is the beautifully figured Desert Ironwood handle. Known for its rich, earthy tone and natural durability, Desert Ironwood brings warmth and texture to the knife without compromising on function. The smooth grip feels great in hand—balanced, responsive, and solid without being bulky. The hidden tang construction allows the clean lines of the wood to shine, while steel Allen bolts anchor the handle with strength and precision. A lanyard hole at the base offers utility for secure carry or added personalization.

Measuring 8 inches overall with a blade thickness of .15 inches, this knife hits the sweet spot between compact utility and substantial field performance. It’s slim enough for everyday carry, yet robust enough to rely on in challenging conditions. Whether you’re handling fine tasks or heavier work, the Congressman feels natural and capable, ready for anything.

Included is a custom-molded black Kydex sheath with a low-profile belt clip for dependable, discreet carry. It locks the knife in place securely while allowing for fast, fluid deployment. The setup is streamlined and lightweight, ensuring the knife stays ready and protected wherever you go.
