Wachtman Custom Raptor Tanto Fixed Blade Knife Coyote Micarta

The Wachtman Raptor fixed blade with a tanto profile is built for strength, control, and reliability when cutting tasks turn demanding. This compact fixed blade favors durability and precision, making it a dependable tool for field work, utility use, and everyday carry. The blade is crafted from 52100 high-carbon steel, a proven material valued for its toughness, strong edge retention, and ease of sharpening in the field.

A black stonewash textured finish gives the blade a subdued, hard-use appearance while helping conceal wear from regular use. The tanto blade shape reinforces the tip, providing exceptional strength for piercing and controlled pressure cuts while maintaining a straight cutting edge that excels at utility work. A flat grind balances cutting efficiency with structural integrity, and the full-tang construction delivers solid balance and confidence in hand.

The handle is designed for security and comfort in challenging conditions. Coyote micarta scales offer a dependable, non-slip grip that performs in wet, dry, or dirty environments. Micarta’s durability and tactile feel make it ideal for prolonged use, while the integrated finger ring enhances retention and control. This feature allows you to maintain a locked-in grip during forceful cuts and quick movements without sacrificing comfort.

A custom-fit Kydex sheath completes the package, providing secure retention and easy access while keeping carry lightweight and practical. Built for repeated use, the sheath and finish are meant to show honest wear, reinforcing the knife’s working nature.
