The need for a tough quality knife cannot be underestimated when it comes to survival situations. Any decent bushcrafter or survival expert will have his or her knife at the top of their priority list. When it comes to what sort of knife then personal preference takes over, but the basics; ease of carry, good steel and reliability should be a given.
Maxpedition's range of fixed blade knives have the basics covered and then some. They are available in a variety of blade shapes and sizes. The Maxepedition Geometric has a tanto style blade ideal for a variety of tasks. The blade is D2 tool steel with a hardness of 58-60 on the Rockwell scale, it is double tempered and benefits from a cryogenic heat treatment making it very hard with a high resistance to corrosion.

The handle is an overmould nylon with EDM texturing with a thong hole sized to allow 1 inch ballistic webbing to pass through. It has a hidden full tang design with 4 keys and 2 through holes for secure integration with molded handle.
