Elite Edge / EIII Knives Possum Fixed Blade Knife - 1095 High Carbon Steel Brut de Forge Satin Drop Point Blade (~2.50" Cutting Edge) - Sculpted Black G-10 Handles with Lanyard Hole & Black Kydex Sheath (POSSUM-BLACK)
Product Description
Combining rugged forge-finished craftsmanship with ergonomic utility, the Elite Edge (EIII Knives) Possum Fixed Blade (POSSUM-BLACK / 871373653748) is built as a hard-working, compact EDC pocket asset. Built around a robust full-tang chassis, the Possum delivers maximum cutting power, easy field maintenance, and secure handling in an ultralight, pocketable footprint.
The centerpiece of the POSSUM-BLACK is its modified drop point blade forged from classic 1095 high carbon steel, featuring a dedicated 2.50-inch razor-sharp cutting edge. Known across the knife world for its incredible impact toughness, razor-sharp edge keenness, and straightforward field sharpening, 1095 carbon steel excels at daily utility slicing, cord cutting, and outdoor tasks. The blade features an eye-catching dual-tone finish: a rustic Brut de Forge (black forge scale) along the upper flats paired with a clean, high-satin ground edge bevel that optimizes cutting geometry and tip control.
The handle features heavily sculpted, rock-textured Black G-10 scales fastened over a solid full-tang frame. Ergonomically contoured with deep finger swells, the textured G-10 delivers an unshakeable, non-slip purchase even in wet or cold conditions. A generous lanyard hole integrated into the pommel allows for custom paracord rigging or quick-draw indexing. Accompanied by a custom-molded black Kydex sheath complete with a multi-position belt/pocket clip, the EIII Knives Possum is a dependable primary asset for daily carry, tactical utility, and outdoor exploration.
*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
Forged from traditional 1095 high carbon steel, the Possum takes an exceptionally sharp edge and provides high impact toughness. Because 1095 is a non-stainless carbon steel, the exposed 2.50" satin cutting edge benefits from simple routine maintenance: keep the blade wiped clean, dry it after use, and apply a light pass of protective synthetic oil or mineral oil to shield against rust. The forge-blackened Brut de Forge flats naturally protect against corrosion, while the sculpted G-10 handle scales can be easily cleaned with warm water, mild soap, and a soft nylon brush.
