Knives of Alaska Cub Bear

Hunting FixedFixed Blade

The caping knife to the Alpha Wolf's general-purpose blade: 2.75" and 2.2 oz, built for working around a head and cape where a 4" knife cannot go. Same D2 and the same SureGrip santoprene handle, which stays grippy with wet hands — the reason this brand is carried in the first place. Retailers publish blade lengths between 2.75" and 3.375" for this model; the figure here is the maker's own.

Why a drop point

The default hunting and EDC shape, and the safest general answer. The spine curves down to the tip in a convex line, which keeps the point low and strong and leaves plenty of belly for skinning. It is hard to make a drop point bad at anything.

About D2

Semi-stainless: enough chromium to resist spotting, not enough to be stainless. Big carbides mean long edge life and a coarse, toothy edge.

1-5 is a relative ranking drawn from published composition and hardness, not a lab measurement. Higher is better on every axis, and no steel is a 5 across the board — edge retention and toughness pull against each other. All D2 knives
