Key Knife Features
Optimized Flat Grind. Known for its exceptional cutting ability, the thin blade glides easily through material, making it particularly effective for field dressing, skinning, and processing game. But this knife also shines around the campfire – easily handling food preparation, game and fish processing, wood carving, making feather sticks, and other finer bushcraft tasks.
Compact and well-balanced design.The 8 cm long and 2.8 mm thick blade offers the right balance between strength and precision. Compact enough for detailed work such as shittling and wood carving, yet robust enough for demanding outdoor use. The ergonomic handle, complete with a secure finger groove, ensures comfort and control during extended field use.
Swedish surgical steel 14C28N, manufactured by Alleima (formerly Sandvik), is a recycled stainless steel that offers the No.8 Flat Grind excellent edge performance, high hardness, and superior corrosion protection. Easy to sharpen in the field – the steel is cryo-quenched for maximum durability and wear resistance, providing reliability in the wilderness.
Ready for Hunting, Fishing and Wilderness Living. Whether you're preparing game, whittling tent pegs, making tinder, or slicing up food by the campfire, the No. 8 SFK Flat Grind is built to perform. Its full-tang construction provides strength and reliability even in tough conditions – a safe choice for hunters, hikers, and wilderness enthusiasts.
Premium handle & sheath options. Several handle options are available that are weather-resistant and built for years of outdoor use: traditional stabilized curly birch – always a favorite; the high-visibility Orange G10, easy to find if you put the knife down; and elegant Black Micarta. All handles are matched with a vegetable-tanned leather sheath, embossed with Casström's leaf symbol.
