The **LionSteel M7** is made as an all-round fixed knife for outdoor use. The foundation for this knife was a limited edition knife that was made with Moletta, the nickname of knife maker Michel Pensato: the Carthago. With a few adjustments this became the M7: a knife with a full tang blade and a micarta handle. The handle is large enough for your entire hand. They made space for your index finger to be able to control the knife better. A superficial milled pattern in the micarta improves the grip but it also gives the knife a special look, one that is typical for LionSteel knives. Unique for this knife is that the handle is milled from one piece of micarta. Usually two individual parts are screwed against the knife, but for the M7 the blade actually falls into the micarta.
This is a heavy-duty knife. The Sleipner steel blade has a 5.5 mm thick spine. Combined with a hardness of 60-61 HRC this knife can endure the heaviest circumstances. Sleipner is a type of updated version of D2 steel. A tough type of tool steel that is quite stainless, but still has difficulty with salt, acids and long-term exposure to moisture. So clean it after use, and occasionally add a couple drops of oil.
The M7 comes with a kydex sheath. The kydex is secured with 8 screws on a solid Cordura base that is MOLLE compatible.
