What does the spine of your knife look like?

Our knives have one of three different spine types, depending on the model and its intended area of use. If you
think the spine of your knife seems to be unfinished or just want to learn more about the spine of your knife –
keep on reading!

Not grinded, but polished spine
This image shows a polished/buffed
2,0 mm thick blade with no spine
grinding. This particular blade can be
found on our craft knives, where the
sharp, durable edge and steady handle
are high priorities, but the spine finish
isn’t. Knives with this grinding aren’t
compatible with a fire starter, due to
the rounded corners of the spine.

Grinded and polished spine

This image shows a polished/
buffed 2,5 mm thick blade with spine
grinding. This blade can be found on
several of our outdoor knives and this
particular image shows a stainless
steel Companion model. Knives with
this grinding aren’t compatible with fire
starter, due to the rounded corners of
the spine.

Grinded, but not polished spine

This image shows a 3,2 mm thick blade
with grinded spine, more specifically
that of the Bushcraft model. The blade
hasn’t been polished/buffed and the
spine corners are sharp, which make
knives with this grinding excellent for
use with a fire starter.
