Kifaru TYTO Knife
Best ultralight cutting tool for minimalist backcountry hunters.
This is the ultimate backcountry solution for those who count every ounce. By swapping traditional steel for a surgical, replaceable blade system, you trade the ability to sharpen in the field for a razor-sharp edge that disappears into your kit until it’s time to work.
