Description
SWEDFNA2: A2 Wilderness Knife
Fallkniven
When you are far from inhabited areas, you need to be able to rely on your equipment. Some things just have to work, despite anything thrown at you. Model A2 is such a tool. It is an extremely durable knife that will never let you down - a knife that can stand up under incredible strain. The reason for its remarkable performance is our use of a newly-developed laminated stainless steel, with an edge consisting of our now-famous VG10 steel and with sides consisting of resilient 420J2 steel. The combination of these steels gives a blade which keeps its edge extremely well and yet is also extremely strong. Since we supply this knife with a convex edge, it is suitable for both cutting and striking. A well-sewn leather sheath is included as standard. For expeditions and tough outdoor life, Model A2 is the obvious choice for a life-long traveling companion.
Fallkniven has instituted a rolling change for their VG-10 models – they are slowly being changed to VG-Wolf steel, a laminated steel that utilizes a VG-10W core. Steel may vary depending on availability and existing stock.

One of the best!
This is one tough knife. It's big, on the heavy side, and will probably outlive me. I've taken it woods walking, hiking and out into the desert, and it can do anything from cutting small trees, to general camp work. It also gives one a sense of real protection against snakes due to it's overall length, it's 8" blade, and it's sharpness. To some this may be overkill, but I like having the best possible equipement when I'm out there alone. Short of a custom made knife, this is the best I've ever found.

Among the very best field knives produced
Use this knife for both small work to chopping when hunting, on missions, and have used it in both African bush and the northern boreal forests. It is extremely tough, top quality, holds edge well, good to sharpen and very sturdy handle. Highly recommended. Extremely sharp out of box.
