Peltonen Knives M23 Ranger Cub With Black Leather Sheath

When the M07 and M95 are too heavy-duty for the task at hand, the M23 Ranger Cub steps into service. This ergonomic puukko knife is suitable for carving and other minor tasks, being lightweight to carry and of the same quality as its bigger siblings. The blade is 3.2 mm thick, compared to the larger knives’ 4.5 mm. The blade is uncoated.

The proportions of the handle and blade make precise carving easy.

The carbon steel blade is easy to sharpen to a great edge with regular whetstones, you won’t need a diamond sharpener for this knife.

• Blade’s spine hardness is rated at HRC59 for toughness

We classify Peltonen Knives’ Ranger Knives as full tang knives because, although the handle material extends over the edge of the tang to protect your hand from the cold metal in freezing conditions, they are fully on par with full tang knives in terms of sturdiness.

Take care of your high carbon steel knife: dry the blade thoroughly immediately after use and occasionally apply a thin layer of salt-free oil to it. This prevents rusting.
