Built around a rugged full-tang construction, the Notchline features a 3.45-inch straight back blade made from premium CPM S35VN stainless steel. Hardened to 59-61 HRC, this high-performance steel delivers an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance, making it a reliable choice for hunting, camping, and outdoor utility tasks. The flat grind provides versatile cutting performance, while the stonewashed finish adds a durable, low-maintenance appearance suited for hard use in the field.
The blade's spine is designed with two independent sections of ribbed traction jimping, one positioned near the base and another farther forward. This thoughtful feature allows you to choke up on the blade for enhanced control during detailed cutting tasks, giving the Notchline excellent precision when accuracy matters most. Whether processing game, preparing camp materials, or handling everyday cutting chores, the design provides confidence and control.
The lightweight rose carbon fiber handle offers a premium look while delivering the durability and strength needed for outdoor environments. Its distinctive milled texture enhances grip and provides excellent control, even in wet or cold conditions. The comfortable handle shape works naturally with the full-tang design, creating a secure feel in hand while keeping the overall weight to just 3.98 ounces.
A concealed lanyard hole with a pre-tied black paracord loop adds retention versatility without interrupting the sleek handle profile. The included weather-resistant black Kydex sheath provides secure storage and easy carry, while the T-Clip designed by renowned knife maker Bob Terzuola offers flexible carry options for a variety of outdoor situations.
Measuring 7.5 inches overall with a 4.05-inch handle, the Notchline delivers an ideal balance of portability, control, and cutting power. Its compact size makes it easy to carry while still providing the strength and reliability expected from a premium fixed blade.
