MKM Base Camp Fixed Blade FAQ

Designed by Simone Tonolli, the MKM Base Camp is a stout outdoor fixed blade built for demanding wilderness chores. Its 0.24-inch thick blade stock delivers high structural strength for hard-use bushcraft and survival applications.

What is the MKM Base Camp designed for?
The MKM Base Camp is designed primarily as a heavy-duty outdoor, survival, and camp knife. Its 0.24-inch thick full-tang blade and saber flat grind make it exceptionally capable at wood splitting, batoning, and light prying.
Does the MKM Base Camp include a sheath?
Yes, the MKM Base Camp includes a sheath equipped with a Tech-Lok attachment for belt carry. This setup provides a compact, secure carry option that keeps the thick blade manageable on your hip.
Why does the MKM Base Camp have a crowned spine?
The crowned spine rounds off the top edge of the blade to increase comfort when pressing down on the spine with your thumb or hand. It also prevents the top edge near the protruding pommel from digging into your palm when using the rear of the knife for light bashing tasks.
Is the MKM Base Camp worth it for survival and camp tasks?
Yes, the MKM Base Camp offers high durability and practical features for wilderness use, priced around $250. Precision crafted by MKM Maniago Knife Makers, its stout construction handles demanding camp work where lighter fixed blades might fail.
