What This Drop Point Blade Offers
This Architect® AK 8 Blade is made in the USA and features 1095 steel that has gone through the differential heat treatment process. This makes it tough and agile while also providing it with excellent edge retention.
The 8-inch fixed blade is coated with a clear Cerakote Ceramic protective finish, which also gives it an even more premium appearance. This top-notch finish takes it to the next level and puts it on par with many more expensive blades.
The Best Uses for This 8-Inch Fixed Blade
This Architect® AK 8 Blade boasts a 7.28″ cutting edge (8.2″ when you include the finger choil) that makes it more than capable of tackling light- to medium-duty tasks. This makes it ideal for those searching for a batoning or bushcraft knife. Its generous finger choil also makes it possible to choke up on this blade to utilize it for more delicate jobs like feather-sticking and trap carving.
There is also a wide range of other uses for this expertly designed-blade. Its near center-line drop point blade enables you to carry out piercing tasks with ease, while its “crusher” pommel can apply blunt force effectively when necessary. It’s a 3/16″ thick blade that is up for almost any challenge it might face.
