SPK23 Survival Prepper Knife Stonewash Finish G10 with Rock Finish Black

Always ready with the SPK23

In emergency situations, everything happens very quickly. Grab your survival and prepper knife and you'll be prepared for anything.

The requirements for the ultimate survival knife: bushcraft, hunting, fishing, carving, rescue, protection as a utility knife.

Bushcraft knife

As an outdoor and camping knife with a 16 cm long blade, batoning, chopping wood, and sharpening thick sticks is child's play.

The 5 mm thick back makes the outdoor knife almost indestructible and has a sharp edge for massive sparks with the fire steel.

The SPK23 bushcraft knife makes fine feather sticks child's play, as the finger recesses for the index finger (in front of the razor-sharp edge) and the thumb ramp (on the back) offer a second grip position for fine work.

Tinder making is made much easier by the front grip position... and if you want to fell a tree with the knife, the rear grip position gives you plenty of power and a non-slip grip.

In addition, a lanyard can be attached to the eyelet at the end of the handle.

Hunting knives & fishing

Wild game catching with a boar catcher requires a secure grip even with wet fingers. The SPK23 is completely slip-proof and transfers the full force of the hand to the tip.

The ergonomic handle with its 4 pressure points prevents slipping onto the sharp edge. No matter how you hold the large hunting knife, it fits perfectly in any hand size.

As a hunting knife, the robust tip penetrates easily and offers enough length for red work on large pieces.

In its front grip position (index finger in the large finger recess on the blade), it is possible to gut fish and cut up animals.

Although it is not designed as a skinner, the SPK23 performs even these tasks reliably.

Utility knife & rescue tool

As with the Breacher, the tip can be used to break through a window, and the sharp edge cuts through straps with ease.

The sheath is fully compatible with all Molle systems and can be attached to backpacks, bags, plate carriers, belts, and equipment.

In addition, a TekLock, belt holder, or other attachments can be attached to the knife with its many attachment points, eyelets, and Molle slots.

Review with rating of 3 out of 5 stars

visuelle und haptische Bewertung sehr gut - leider eben in China hergestellt - zwei Punkte Abzug!

Das Messer ist schon ein Hingucker. was mir prima gefällt, ist das der Erl nur wenige Zehntel mm über die Griffschalen ragt. Der Erl schneidet also nicht in die Hand. Der Griff ist einer der besseren (und ich habe einige Messer), die Oberfläche sieht klasse aus, dennoch würde ich mir in der Mitte des Griffes mehr Fleisch wünschen. Während der Umriß des Griffes in Klingenebene sehr ergonomisch ist, ist der Griff überall gleich dick - das ist unergonomisch (mein Beruf ist unter anderem Arbeitsergonomie). Der Griff sollte in der Mitte ein gutes Stück dicker sein, um sich erheblich besser in die Hand zu schmiegen.
Die Kerbe für den Zeigefinger halte ich für Nonsense. Ich hielte hier eine längere Schneide für erheblich sinnvoller und statt der Zeigefingerausnehmung eine längere Nase zwischen Griff und Schneide, um hier nicht versehntlich hineinzugreifen. Dann vielleicht 2-3mm Ricasso. Der Abstand Hand zu Scheide für feine Arbeiten wäre identisch.

Nach der protzigen Eigenbeschreibung seitens Schmiedeglut "Eine Damast-Messermanufaktur aus Deutschland. Wir schmieden jede Woche coole Kochmesser, Jagdmesser, Schwerter, Macheten und andere scharfe Klingen in unserer Messerschmiede und machen davon Videos. " hatte ich sicher nicht erwartet, dass mein Messer handgeschmiedet ist. Aber durchaus nicht geringe Preise anzuziehen und Ware aus China zu liefern, halte ich für unangemessen. Ich habe bei Schmiedeglut gekauft, weil ich ein Deutsches Messer haben wollte, nicht allein, weil ich ein tolles Messer haben wollte! Und dann kommt das Ding aus China! - Ich fasse es nicht und bin maßlos enttäuscht! Und das ist bei der Beschreibung nicht erwähnt! Ich halte das für Vorspiegelung falscher Tatsachen!
