The drop-point blade measures 89mm in length and 3.3mm in thickness, with a plain edge and satin finish, making it ideal for precise cutting tasks like preparing food or slicing rope. The blade’s moderate hardness means it may require occasional sharpening during extended trips, so carrying a pocket sharpener is recommended.

However, the blade’s 56 HRC hardness means it may not hold an edge as well as higher-end steels, so users should be prepared for more frequent sharpening during heavy use.
