Toor Knives:
The Field 2.0 was designed by Toor Knives with every day use in mind and has quickly become known as the workhorse of their Outdoor Series. Its small size allows for all day carry comfort, while having the capability to handle almost any task out on the trail.
The edge features a 2.75” straight for fine work, and a razor sharp 1.75” radius to the tip for traditional blade work. Its KG Gunkote finish provides excellent abrasion, chemical and impact resistance, and the blade shape allows for much more steel mass behind the edge, which translates to a longer sharpening life and edge impact resistance. A perfect 90-degree spine, from the tip all the way to the thumb jimping, provides more surface area for hammering and ferro rod sparking.
Additionally, every handle is lined with a polished copper accent and Toor’s proprietary Dynamic Fluting™ texture, providing smooth ergonomics in the hand, as well as grip when operating in wet environments. This design forces proper grip mechanics and concentrates all the pressure onto the apex of the blade edge, conquering the age-old task of offering both comfort AND grip. With a precision cut ¼” radius on each flute, and spiral rifling from end to end, each groove flows perfectly with the hand’s natural positioning.
Every Field 2.0 is Made in the USA and includes a genuine Hermann Oak saddle leather sheath. **** TAP has been using this knife in the field for 3 months and can recommend the quality and build.
