New orders will be fulfilled AFTER all preorders and presale orders have been fulfilled, in the next 90 days.

The SURVIVE! GSO-4.7 is a new model for 2015 and is replacing the GSO-5 in new production. This is a full sized knife in a very purposeful, compact package. The 4 3/4" blade features a strong spear point that makes it well suited for a wide variety of tasks. The very ergonomic, generously sized handles will make this knife a favorite among a wide spectrum of user types. With a .175" blade thickness this knife is robust enough to tackle even the most demanding cutting chores with confidence.

Our high quality Torx T-25 style fasteners are precision machined from 416 stainless steel.  Key features of the kydex sheaths include: excellent retention, drain channels, and several attachment options with slots and eyelets, in addition to the kydex clip.  The peened finish on the blade provides extra durability and is non-reflective.  The spine is sharp enough for use with most ferro rods.

Disclaimer:
- You are not required to purchase a kydex sheath with your order but it is HIGHLY recommended that you do so.

A bit about the steel used in SURVIVE! Knives:

CPM-3V is a high alloyed tool steel, made using the Crucible Particle Metallurgy process, that has a very high impact toughness and excellent edge holding. Being made with the CPM process, this steel is also very resistant to lateral stress (flex) breakage, making it a perfect choice for a high performance, hard use knife. CPM-3V is not a stainless alloy and can stain if not cared for.  Check out the CPM-3V Data Sheet.

CPM-20CV is a very high quality martensitic stainless steel, with outstanding corrosion resistance and excellent edge holding. CPM-20CV does lack the impact toughness of CPM-3V but being made with the CPM process, this steel is still very resistant to lateral stress (flex) breakage. Consider CPM-20CV for a very low maintenance, all weather cutting tool.  Here is the CPM-20CV Data Sheet.

CPM-154 is a high quality CPM version of the very popular 154cm cutlery steel. While it does lack the edge retention of a steel like CPM-20CV or even CPM-3V, this steel is much easier to resharpen and maintain and takes a beautiful polished edge. CPM-154 also offers improved toughness when compared to CPM-20CV. We've recieved some customer requests for this steel, so we've decided to offer a special run of it.
