SHOP CASE KNIVESThe LT Wright SMKW Exclusive Naked G.O.A.T. Primal Fixed Blade is built for those who live by grit, endurance, and sheer willpower. Designed in collaboration with survival legend EJ Snyder, this limited-edition knife is forged for real-world punishment. Snyder’s resume reads like a survivalist’s dream—six grueling Naked and Afraid challenges totaling over 200 days in the wild, zero taps, and countless miles of unforgiving terrain conquered. He’s endured everything from the Balkan Mountains to the Amazon jungle, dropping 75 pounds in one brutal XL challenge and even surviving 21 days solo. Beyond that, he’s appeared on hit shows like Dual Survival, Lost, 72 Hours, and Patton 360°, cementing his place as one of the toughest men to ever walk into the wilderness.
At the core of this blade lies a 6.5" O1 tool steel drop point with a Scandi grind—an unapologetically tough combination built to chew through hard use. Whether carving stakes, striking sparks, or dressing game, the Primal performs with absolute control and devastating edge retention. This is a knife designed to take a beating and keep slicing.
Its green Micarta handle drives home the purpose-built design, offering a rock-solid grip even when soaked with rain, mud, or sweat. The ergonomic contours fit naturally in the hand, letting you work longer and harder without losing control. Every inch of this knife is engineered for performance and survival—no frills, no compromises, just raw capability.
Proudly made in the USA and available only at Smoky Mountain Knife Works, this SMKW exclusive is more than a survival tool—it’s a testament to endurance, expertise, and the will to outlast. When they’re gone, they’re gone, and so is your chance to own a piece of survival history.
