When it comes to knives and blades, Case has been a household name for generations. Their classic designs have stood the test of time, but their innovation has not ceased. This year at SHOT Show, they released their newest blade, the Case Winkler Pack Axe and damn…it's cool. From Case- ” The Case Winkler Pack Axe, co-designed by Kevin Holland, is an exceptional tool that cuts through the challenges of outdoor survival. Kevin knows a thing or two about survival and the tools of that trade, having been through more than 2,000 combat missions across the globe as a U.S. Navy Seal and an elite member of U.S. Army Special Operations.” The Pack Axe features a rugged design built around a single 3/8” (95 mm)-thick piece of 80CrV2 carbon steel, measures 15” in length, and weighs 26 oz. The Pack Axe is not just sharp, it also has a blunt end that can function as a mallet. The handle is tapered, skeletonized, and boasts Durable Canvas laminate grips. The reinforced ballistic nylon straps are perfect for attaching the axe to your belt and the paracord wrap around the skeletonized area provides extra utility.
