The Knives of Alaska Trekker Pronghorn Hunter Fixed Blade Knife is built to eliminate the frustrating friction of field dressing by transforming game processing into a precise science. We've all been there out in the backcountry, wrestling with a slippery knife handle or a dull edge while trying to dress big game in freezing rain. Instead of risking a dangerous hand slip or a butchered cape with an overly complex folder or a fragile, smooth-scaled tool, this purpose-built hunting asset delivers an effortless, tactile solution. It gives you immediate clarity and complete confidence in your cutting angles right at your field dressing station or outdoor workbench.
At the core of the Trekker Pronghorn Hunter is a 3.25-inch plain edge Clip Point blade forged from high-performance D2 tool steel, cryogenically treated and hardened to 59–61 HRC for legendary edge retention and wear resistance. The blade features a non-glare bead-blasted finish. Housing the full-tang frame is an ergonomic Santoprene rubberized polymer handle molded with deep finger grooves and an aggressive checkered texture to ensure a rock-solid grip in wet or bloody conditions.
Engineered for delicate caping, fleshing, and skinning operations, the 0.110-inch thick full-tang construction transfers direct downward leverage through a flat-ground 18°–20° bevel angle. The fine, laser-sharp clip point executes intricate cuts around trophy capes while the sweeping belly handles long skinning strokes seamlessly. It carries safely on your hip in an included oiled vegetable-tanned split-grained cowhide leather belt sheath.
