The Chris Caine Companion Knife is a must-have tool for serious survivalists. It is the latest addition to the Chris Caine Survival Series and serves as a middle ground between the larger Survival Tool and the smaller Survival Knife.
Crafted from 5mm thick 1075 Carbon Steel, the full tang blade of the Companion knife is laser cut and hardened to 52/53 Rockwell. This means it is incredibly sharp and durable, capable of felling large trees. Despite its strength, it weighs just 16 ounces (450g), making it lightweight enough to be comfortably worn on a belt.
The blade features a convex grind, ensuring a long-lasting edge and easy sharpening. It excels at splitting logs for firewood and effortlessly shaves fire sticks. Towards the back of the blade, the spine has a crisp square edge, perfect for scraping wood to create fine fibrous layers for starting fires.
The handle is made from durable black Linen Micarta and is designed with three main grips, allowing for adjustable power and control depending on the task at hand. The standard Cordura sheath is of high quality and fully articulated. Additionally, this knife comes with a premium leather sheath that includes a sharpener and fire starter, as shown in the pictures above.
