Build & Materials
The blade is crafted from premium Böhler M390 steel, a high-performance stainless steel known for exceptional edge retention, strong corrosion resistance, excellent wear resistance, and fine cutting ability. It is an ideal steel choice for users who want a compact fixed blade that stays sharp and performs reliably in everyday and outdoor conditions.
The blade is finished in satin, giving the knife a clean, professional appearance while preserving the practical durability expected from a working TRC fixed blade.
Blade Style and Performance
The Full Flat Grind, or FFG, is one of the key performance features of this knife. It gives the blade excellent slicing efficiency, clean cutting geometry, and precise control for everyday tasks, camp use, fishing, food preparation, and general outdoor utility.

Handle and Ergonomics
The handle features sandblasted Black Canvas Micarta scales with a striking red liner, giving this version its distinctive Red Liner character. Micarta is valued for secure grip, durability, and comfort, especially in wet or demanding outdoor conditions.
The red liner adds a subtle custom touch without overwhelming the knife’s clean, minimalist aesthetic. Combined with full-tang construction and ergonomic shaping, the handle provides confident control and dependable long-term reliability.
Carry System
Each knife comes with a traditional TRC-made Kydex sheath, providing secure retention, safe transport, and reliable field carry. The sheath supports the knife’s role as a practical outdoor and everyday fixed blade, keeping it protected and accessible when needed.
