Why the Blade Geometry Matters
The blade is 2.5 in of AEB-L steel, 0.080 in thick, on a skeletonized handle that’s 6.5 in overall. A paracord wrap or no wrap is available. It’s steel, not titanium.
Why Choose It
Choose it over the hunting knives when you want something small to carry every day. For game processing, step up to the Ovis Hunter or the Mountain Caper.

What Kestrel customers are saying
-
Being a professional guide and a son of a ranch butcher, I've skinned a lot of animals and a knife that can hold a sharp edge is a must. I've used many brands of knives and Kestrel Knives are the only one I've found that can hold a sharp edge the longest. I bought my first EDC about 3 years ago and skinned 2 elk and a 1,200 lbs buffalo with it so far and still haven't had to use my wet stone to resharpen it.

What a great knife. These are the lightest weight knives I’ve ever seen and truly a necessity for the backcountry hunter.

The trip was amazing, man. I live in northern BC, Fort Nelson, a couple hours’ drive and 5 of our horses. 20 km trip into base camp, and day rides from there. 9 days on horses, 180+ km between boots and horseback. On the 7th day I shot my ram.The knife was amazing. My dad had his Havalon and I had my Kestrel. His Havalon handle snapped on him, and we finished the caping with my Kestrel
