High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt with precision and purpose, the Half Face Blades Gula Gula Armor Black is a compact fixed blade that delivers rugged utility wrapped in a refined, no-compromise design. Proudly made in the USA, this knife is a testament to functional craftsmanship—tough enough for real-world challenges, sleek enough for everyday carry, and versatile enough for everything in between.
At the core of the Gula Gula is a 3-inch Wharncliffe blade crafted from premium CPM S45VN stainless steel. This top-tier steel is engineered for serious performance, offering exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The Wharncliffe profile provides a straight cutting edge and fine tip, giving you precision and control for slicing, scoring, or detailed work. Finished in a deep Armor Black Cerakote, the blade has a tactical matte look that’s both low-profile and resilient against wear, moisture, and environmental elements.
The knife’s full tang construction adds uncompromising strength from tip to handle. It’s outfitted with black canvas Micarta handle scales, precision-textured in Half Face Blades’ Iron Grip pattern. This handle design delivers a secure, confident grip even in adverse conditions, while remaining comfortable enough for extended use. Whether you’re wearing gloves, dealing with wet environments, or operating in fast-moving scenarios, the Iron Grip ensures this blade stays locked in hand. Titanium Torx bolts fasten the scales, bringing lightweight durability and a clean, high-performance finish to every detail.
With an overall length of 7.1 inches and a blade thickness of .14 inches, the Gula Gula Armor Black strikes an ideal balance between portability and utility. Compact enough to disappear on your belt, yet substantial enough to handle serious cutting tasks, it’s the kind of knife you’ll reach for whether you're in the woods, on the job, or handling daily challenges. The lanyard hole at the end of the handle offers additional carry or retention options, letting you customize it to suit your needs.
This knife includes a custom-molded black Kydex sheath, built for secure and streamlined carry. The sheath’s belt loop ensures a reliable mount to your gear or waistband, whether you prefer vertical or scout-style carry. It offers fast access, positive retention, and the durability to match the knife it protects.
The Gula Gula Armor Black is built for doers, explorers, and professionals—those who know the value of a dependable blade and demand gear that keeps up. It’s simple, strong, and dialed in for performance, with American-made pride at its foundation.
