I have spent nearly a decade optimizing the steel, hardening process, and sharpening method for our broadheads. At the same time, I love bowhunting the backcountry and have wanted an ultra-light knife with excellent edge retention and toughness that could skin and debone multiple animals without resharpening. After nearly 2 years of engineering and testing, we are now shipping the k1 Ultralight Hunting Knife. It weighs only 1 oz and I was able to completely skin and debone my elk and muledeer this year without sharpening. I also used a second one on my bear and whitetail with the same results. The top sharpened edges are designed for ripping hide which keeps the belly of the knife sharp longer for skinning and deboning. A few other Roksliders were part of the test group, so hopefully they will give a report. Also watch for a Rokslide review from Les Welch coming soon. Let me know if you have questions.
