Work Tuff Gear Steadfast Fixed Knife Black G-10 Handle Dark Washed K329 Blade K329-DWBG10B

The Work Tuff Gear Steadfast is a purpose-driven fixed blade built for those who need dependable performance in the field, around camp, on the hunt, or in high-pressure situations where reliability matters most. Designed by Calvin Richardson, the Steadfast delivers the rugged durability and practical versatility expected from a true working knife while maintaining clean lines and excellent ergonomics for everyday carry in the outdoors.

Measuring 10.5 inches overall, the Steadfast features a capable 5.5-inch drop point blade crafted from premium Bohler K329 tool steel with a proven 58-60 HRC heat treatment. Known for its toughness, wear resistance, and edge retention, K329 gives this knife the strength to tackle demanding cutting tasks while standing up to prolonged hard use. The dark washed finish adds a rugged, low-profile appearance that hides wear well and complements the knife’s hardworking design.

The blade’s saber grind paired with a micro convex cutting edge delivers an ideal balance between slicing efficiency and durability. Whether you're processing wood, preparing game, cutting rope, or handling survival chores in the field, the Steadfast is designed to provide controlled cutting power without sacrificing edge strength. The straight clip profile creates a fine, highly capable tip for drilling and piercing tasks while retaining additional steel behind the point for enhanced toughness and reliability.

Built with full tang construction and a blade thickness of .188 inches, the Steadfast is engineered for confidence under pressure. The black G-10 handle scales provide a secure grip in wet, cold, or dirty conditions while remaining comfortable during prolonged use. Richardson designed the handle to accommodate multiple grip styles and a wide range of hand sizes, allowing the knife to transition naturally between precision work, heavy cutting, and defensive applications.

At 10.5 ounces, the Steadfast offers a substantial feel without becoming cumbersome on the belt or in a pack. It comes equipped with a durable black Kydex sheath and custom belt loop for secure retention and versatile carry options. Whether attached to your gear, packed into a bugout bag, or carried on your next backcountry adventure, the Steadfast is built to stay ready for whatever lies ahead.

From survival tasks in the woods to demanding utility work in unforgiving conditions, the Work Tuff Gear Steadfast lives up to its name with uncompromising strength, dependable performance, and field-ready versatility.
