Survival Knife and Kit

The Survival Knife and Kit model 14037 is the perfect knife for anyone exploring the outdoors. It combines a tough blade, useful handle, and indispensable survival gear in a neat, little package. This knife is designed to be the perfect lightweight survival kit or concealed carry belt knife.

Blade Quality

The survival knife's biggest component is the sharp, solid blade. It’s made of 440C stainless steel and is known for retaining its edge well after heavy use.

• Blade Length: 7.6 inches provides plenty of cutting surface.
• Edge Types:
• Straight Edge: For clean cuts on rope, food, and branches.
• 3-Inch Serrated Edge: Ideal for more aggressive cutting through dirty or muddy materials.
• 2.8-Inch Bone Saw (Spine): Sawing through bone or thick branches.

These two edges, in combination, prepare the knife for just about anything a user would need it for in the field.

Protective Guard

Safety is important in a survival situation . This knife features a 3-inch steel guard to prevent the hand from sliding onto the blade. There are also two holes in the guard for a lanyard to be attached, keeping the knife safe when in use.

Handle and Hidden Survival Kit

The handle provides a thoughtful grip and includes a waterproof compartment for a small survival kit.

• Handle Material: 4-inch aluminum with skid-proof texture for a steady hold.
• Hidden Kit Items:
• Compass for basic navigation.
• Sewing kit to repair clothing or gear.
• Emery cloth to sharpen the blade.
• Fishing line and hook for catching small fish.
• Four match sticks for starting fires.

This design keeps essential tools dry and always within reach.

Durable Sheath

If the user is going on an adventure, it’s important to carry the blade safely. The rugged nylon sheath clips to a belt for easy access. When closed, it wraps completely around the blade and holds the knife snugly to prevent it from slipping out.

Versatility in the Field

The Survival Knife and Kit have uses beyond the outdoors:

1. Food Preparation: Cutting fruits, vegetables, or meat.
2. Shelter Building: Shaping wood or cordage for small shelters.
3. First Aid: Cutting bandages or clothing in emergencies.
4. Fire-Starting: Using the matches in the handle.
5. Fishing: Using a line and a hook to catch fish for food.

Its multi-edge blade and built-in kit make this tool useful for campers, hunters, and hikers.

How to Use

Below is a guide to safe and effective knife use:

2. Secure Sheath: Attach the sheath to a belt or pack strap.
3. Grip Firmly: Feel the hand on the ergonomic handle with a non-slip grip covering.
