Hinderer Ek Dagger Parkarized O1 OD Green Micarta Fixed Blade 1341

Hinderer Knives puts their spin on the John Ek classic World War II commando knife. With a powerful dagger blade, trademark contoured handles and Hinderer build quality the Ek Dagger is a reliable tool for times when success is the only option. This version has a black Parkarized O1 tool steel blade and OD Green Micarta handle scales.

Brand new, directly from Hinderer Knives.

Blade: The dagger blade is thick, full tang O1 tool steel with a traditional Parkarized finish for corrosion resistance and light discipline, matte black and discreetly non-reflective. Dual hollow grinds make this a double threat when slicing with a flat ground tip for piercing strength and dual fullers for optimal balance.

Handle: Thick slabs of canvas Micarta are attached securely via steel flathead bolts and heavily milled for a solid, secure grip while still being fast in the hand. A hole is provided for lanyard attachment and the tang extends beyond the scales for use as an impact or pry tool.

Carries via a Kydex sheath with Blade Tech Tek-Lok.

O1 Carbon Tool Steel: AISI O1 is a fine-grained tool steel popular in woodworking tools and as a forging steel with custom and production makers. Can reach 65HRC and works well with refined edge at high hardness for smaller knives. Edge holding and toughness are similar to 1095.
