CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe LionSteel T6 is a mid-size fixed blade built to take hard use in stride, from field work to backcountry survival. Its 5.83" drop point blade is crafted from K490 microclean steel—a tool steel known for extreme wear resistance and edge stability—and finished with a rugged black PVD coating that helps resist corrosion and glare in harsh conditions. Whether you're batoning wood, skinning game, or breaching materials in an emergency, the T6 is built for total confidence in the hand.
This full tang beast is paired with a contoured Natural Canvas Micarta handle that offers a sure grip in wet, cold, or dirty environments. Micarta remains a favorite among serious outdoorsmen for its durability and tactile security, and it looks even better with age. Stainless steel Torx hardware ensures everything stays tight under stress, while the rear impact pommel and lanyard hole add utility for hammering, prying, or rigging gear on the fly.
At 11.61" overall, the T6 bridges the gap between field knife and combat-ready tool. It rides in a MOLLE-compatible black Kydex sheath with a belt loop for versatile carry, plus a black cord lanyard for added retention or quick access. Handmade in Maniago, Italy—one of the world’s elite knife-making hubs—the T6 brings together Italian craftsmanship, modern materials, and a design meant to thrive in real-world conditions.
