The Crossbones Work Knife V1 is the same Matt Helm-designed utility blade you know—just with some surface-level scars. These are functionally perfect knives with minor cosmetic blemishes, offered at 15% off MSRP. Built in-house with Helm’s signature usability and backed by our lifetime warranty, this is a true workhorse in disguise. This knife was designed in partnership with Matt Helm. It is based on his Work Knife tanto design. It shares the handles with the rest of the Work Knife family of blades, and is significantly smaller than the Matt Helm Persian that we also produce. It retains all of his attention to detail and usability in a very accessible package. It is made from CPM 3v, Magnacut or 80CrV2 steel, and has a tumbled, nitride or black oxide finish. It is professionally heat treated to 60 HRc for 3v and 80CrV2, and 63 HRc for Magnacut. The knife has an overall length of 7.5" and a cutting edge of 3.4". It is 3/16" thick and has a tanto style blade.
