TBS Boar MKIII EDC Pocket Knife & Firesteel
Description
TBS Boar Folding Pocket Knife. From a high grade steel to and even higher grade steel, comes the Mark III TBS Boar Folding Knife.
The Mark III is made from high quality European N690co Stainless Steel. Bohlers phenomenal N690co Stainless Knife Steel is a Martensitic chromium steel with cobalt, molybdenum and vanadium added. This steel is especially to make hardened cutting tools with excellent edge-holding properties. It was developed for tools and components which can be hardened to very high hardness levels and great corrosion resistance. When fine ground it produces a wickedly sharp edge and will retain that edge far longer than many other steels available on the market today.
The Boar EDC features a 70mm blade a full Scandi Grind is extremely versatile and is ideal for wood processing and Bushcraft. Choose from Super Grade Turkish Walnut, Stag Antler or Canvas Micarta. All the materials have their obvious qualities and are all easy to maintain and look great. Ultimately the choice is yours but if you are going to be in wetter environments then Antler or Micarta is probably a better option. Naturally with timber handles they will need a little more care and will need cleaning and oiling more regularly. The more oil and product you can into timber the more water resistant it will become.
The belt pouch is impeccably made from high grade leather and is thicker and more robust than before. It is a full cover type belt pouch and is designed to hold the knife with or without the press stud. This is a design feature to ensure that you do not lose your knife on the move and, as such, each pouch will be very close fitting. The pouch will "break in" and soften over time like any good pair of boots and the attachment of a lanyard to the lanyard hole of the handle is a good addition to aid in removing the knife from the pouch. All TBS knives are European made by Master Cutlers and made with European steels and materials.DetailsSpecificationsOther Information
