Reiff Knives F6 Leuku Gen 2 Fixed Blade - 6.00" CPM 3V Dark Earth PVD Drop Point Blade - Green Canvas Micarta Handles (F601DGCMBLKA)
Overview & Heritage: The Reiff Knives F6 Leuku Gen 2 is a modern tactical and wilderness evolution of the traditional Scandinavian Leuku camp knife. Designed by Stu and Ben Shank and precision-crafted in the USA, this rugged heavy-duty fixed blade is purpose-engineered for serious outdoorsmen, bushcrafters, survivalists, and backcountry operators who demand an indestructible cutting tool. Combining traditional Scandinavian utility with American manufacturing and super-steel technology, the F6 Leuku Gen 2 excels at heavy camp chores, wood processing, skinning, and hard-use field utility.
Blade & Performance: Featuring a substantial 6.00-inch drop point blade forged from ultra-tough CPM 3V powder metallurgy tool steel, the F6 Leuku Gen 2 boasts extreme resistance to edge chipping and breakage under high impact. The blade is treated with a non-reflective, highly durable Dark Earth PVD coating that guards against harsh environmental elements and rust. Engineered with a robust flat saber grind featuring a convex micro-bevel and a thick 0.1875-inch spine, this blade offers remarkable slicing geometry paired with raw splitting power for heavy batoning and shelter building.
Handle, Lock & Ergonomics: Designed for extended use without causing hand fatigue, the full-tang skeletonized frame features ergonomically contoured 3D-machined Green Canvas Micarta scale handles. The natural canvas fiber texture offers an exceptionally tactile, non-slip grip that becomes even grippier when wet from rain, mud, or sweat. Gen 2 handle updates feature improved palm-swell contours, comfortable rounding, and a generous lanyard hole at the pommel. Included with the knife is a heavy-duty, weather-resistant black Kydex sheath equipped with a secure belt attachment for versatile carry in harsh environments.
*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
CPM 3V is an ultra-high toughness tool steel, but it is non-stainless. While the protective Dark Earth PVD finish provides strong surface defense against corrosion, proper maintenance is essential to prevent micro-pitting along the exposed cutting edge. After field use, thoroughly clean and dry the blade. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil, Sentry Solutions TUFF-GLIDE, or high-grade gun oil before storing the knife. Clean the canvas Micarta handles and Kydex sheath with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft brush as needed.
