This knife strikes the perfect balance between corrosion resistance and the ability to hold an edge. The stainless steel blade is harder, and therefore holds an edge better, than a less expensive 304 stainless model. This results in a sharper knife, one that you can always rely on in an entanglement situation. Features a line notch cutter that is ideal for cutting monofilament line, with enlarged guards prevent the hand from slipping forward onto the blade.
