XL Bear — Tasmanian Blackwood, TruStone & Deer Antler

The XL Bear is our heaviest-duty blade, built for the jobs that punish a knife. Splitting, chopping, batoning, breaking down big game. When you need one tool that will not quit, this is it.

The blade is Rigor tool steel run at a massive 7mm thick. Heavy, tough, and built to take a beating that would fold a lighter knife. A proper workhorse with serious backbone.

The handle pairs stabilised Tasmanian Blackwood with a TruStone spacer and natural deer antler, built to fill the hand and hold on through hard work. No two are ever the same.
