Martin Knives Hollow Handle TAD Edition is an extremely rugged survival knife capable of performing under strenuous circumstances during field outings. Newt Martin started with a basic survival knife design and evolved the concept into a versatile knife system capable of carrying essential survival tools without compromising the integrity of the knife. He accomplished this by screwing the hollowed out handle to the blade and epoxying them together so it still retains its strength and durability and allows the blade to perform as well as other fixed blades. Whether you are looking to set a trap, cut branches for camp, or skin an animal, the Martin Knives Hollow Handle TAD Edition fixed blade is up to the task.

Features:
A 5.00” CPM S35V modified bayonet point blade was made to perform a variety of cutting tasks and punctures. The large guard has two lashing points and the hollow handle is large enough to secure to a large pole for spear hunting applications.
At approximately 3.14” deep, the knurled hollow handle provides storage space large enough to fit our Survival Spark, water purification tablets, cash or waterproof matches for on-the-go access to survival tools.
Always find your way with a mini compass built into the durable aluminium butt cap of the handle.
Fitted with a custom drop leg leather sheath made by Steve Shepard, quickly draw your knife from various positions.
Our TAD Edition features chemically-etched Triple Aught Design and Martin Knives logos on blade base and the number 14 stamped into the heel of the blade to mark the manufacturing year.
