This updated version of our original MarlinSpike features two additional finger grooves at the top, for added grip, as well as a hole for a lanyard or FOB to be attached, providing the opportunity for faster access, as well as personalization. Originally designed as a nautical tool used to splice ropes, untie knots, or form toggles/handles, the MarlinSpike is a true beast that’s ready to tackle any situation. Constructed from universally tough 4140 steel, this versatile tool is designed to be impact and fracture resistant from repeated stress. The finger grooves at the top and bottom of the spike ensure a non-slip grip when operating in slick conditions and we topped it off with a KG Gunkote finish on Phantom Grey and Canyon Drab, and a Black Oxide finish on Carbon. Every MarlinSpike 2.0 is Made in the USA and includes a black Tru-Hide KYDEX® sheath which is compatible with all of our mounts. Know your local knife laws!
