Gil Hibben Alaskan Survival Knife

Full-tang construction means the blade steel extends all the way through the handle, rather than just being attached to the top. This design significantly increases the knife's structural integrity, making it much less likely to snap or break during heavy-duty tasks like batoning wood or prying.

Yes, Micarta is an excellent choice for outdoor conditions. It is a composite material that becomes grippier when wet, and its textured surface ensures you maintain a secure hold even if your hands are cold, muddy, or wearing gloves.

The blade measures 6.875 inches in length. With an overall length of 12.25 inches, it is sized as a substantial, heavy-duty tool capable of handling demanding wilderness tasks.

The included premium genuine leather sheath is designed for durability and reliable carry in the field. While it provides a secure fit for the knife, it is a traditional friction-fit style, so ensure the knife is fully seated before moving through dense brush.

The seal indicates that the knife design has been vetted and endorsed by the Alaska Professional Hunters Association. It serves as a mark of approval, signifying that the tool meets the practical, rigorous standards required by professional guides working in demanding Alaskan environments.
