Part parang, part machete, 100% competent. The new Wayfinder has all the performance advantages of a much bigger (and heavier) blade, blasting through underbrush and cleaving branches up to 1.5" in diameter. But weighing in at just twelve ounces, this trim titan will more than earn its keep while still leaving plenty of room in your pack for other essentials. Lead the way in every survival situation with the Wayfinder.
Crafted from .210" CPM-MagnaCut stainless steel, the Wayfinder resists corrosion and staining while holding an edge up to twice as long as comparable steels.
Our American-made G10 handle says, "Aw, that's cute" to rain, snow, mud and just about anything else you can think of. We designed all our handles for secure, comfortable, hot-spot free use in all seasons and textured them for improved grip when the going gets wet. NEW exclusively for GEN 2: Handles are now completely interchangeable!
The Wayfinder also features a completely redesigned GEN 2 Carbon Fiber Kydex sheath, featuring an improved, rattle free fit, horizontal, vertical, MOLLE and beltless carry options and more. Specially designed for compatibility with the included UltiClip 3.3 Slim for secure beltless carry no matter how heavy the terrain.
Backed by an industry-leading warranty and over 50 years' knifemaking experience, the Wayfinder is a stronghold of American quality and craftsmanship.
