Designed with purpose and built to last, the Dacian™ sets a high bar for durability and performance matched only by our promise that it will be yours, for life.

BLADE STYLE

Spear-Point

Known for its symmetrical shape and strong tip designed for piercing performance. Traditionally, spear-points are double-sided, but those knives are more specifically referred to as daggers.

BLADE STEEL

CPM-MagnaCut Stainless Steel (60-62 HRC)

A new approach to stainless tool steel that eliminates chromium carbides from the microstructure. The result: a combination of properties with similar toughness and edge retention to non-stainless steels like CPM-CruWear and CPM-4V, with the addition of excellent corrosion resistance and strength.

HANDLE

Micarta

A durable composite material made from layers of canvas fabric and resin. Constructed by layering and compressing fabric and phenolic resin.

OPENING ACTION

Fixed

These knives do not fold and typically include a sheath to protect the edge.
