The Scalpel All-Steel Survival Knife is a compact, fixed-blade bushcraft knife produced by Holtzman’s Gorilla Survival, a brand specializing in affordable outdoor and survival gear. Designed as a lightweight, portable tool for camping, hiking, hunting, fishing, and emergency situations, it’s marketed as a “giftset for outdoors” and emphasizes durability, sharpness, and safety. It’s particularly suited for users needing a small, razor-like blade for precise tasks without the bulk of larger survival knives.
Key Specifications
• Overall Length: 4.96 inches (compact for easy carry and concealment).
• Blade Length: 1.96 inches.
• Blade Material: D2 tool steel, known for its exceptional edge retention, hardness, and resistance to wear—ideal for repeated sharpening and heavy use. The blade is described as “razor sharp” out of the box, with a drop-point or scalpel-like profile for slicing and precision cutting.
• Handle Length: 2.99 inches.
• Handle Design: Full-tang construction for strength, made entirely from the same all-steel material as the blade (hence “all-steel”). Features jimping (notched ridges) on both sides for enhanced grip, making it anti-slip and ergonomic even in wet or gloved conditions. The handle is comfortable for extended use without hand fatigue, though its slim profile may not suit very large hands.
• Sheath: Includes a durable Kydex sheath for secure storage and quick deployment. The sheath supports belt carry or neck lanyard attachment, enhancing versatility for EDC (everyday carry) or neck knife setups.
