High-Priced, Fixed-Blade Leatherman's Trac Stands Up to Nature's Challenges at a Cost of $300
Leatherman Unveils Premium Outdoor Knife Collection: The Trac Leads the Pack
Leatherman, the renowned Oregon-based gear brand, has ventured into the world of premium knives with the release of their first collection. The star of the show is the Trac, an outdoor-focused fixed blade knife designed for versatile wilderness use such as field-dressing game and foraging.
The Trac boasts a 4.2-inch drop-point blade made from MagnaCut stainless steel, featuring a hollow saber grind for excellent cutting power. The blade's hardness rating ranges between 60-63 HRC, ensuring durability and precision.
The full-tang construction of the Trac, with radiused edges, offers a shadowbox effect for enhanced durability and balance. The ergonomic, sculpted G10 handle provides an enhanced grip and control, suitable for different weather conditions.
The Trac is designed for both horizontal and vertical carry, making it suitable for both left-handed and right-handed users. It comes with a premium vegetable-tanned leather sheath made from hand-stitched, American full-grain cowhide, including a lanyard loop at the butt for quick access.
The Trac is available in three colourways: Alpine, Earth Brown, and Jet Black, with additional stylistic touches like jimping on the spine for grip. The lanyard loop at the butt of the knife allows quicker access, adding to its practicality.
The Trac is part of a trio of fixed blades in Leatherman's new collection. The other two are the 5-inch Pioneer tanto blade and the flat-grind Rustle santoku for camp cooking.
Priced at around $300, the Trac positions itself as a high-end outdoor knife, balancing toughness, corrosion resistance, and precision in a USA-made package, making it a reliable tool for serious outdoor enthusiasts.
You can get your hands on the Trac and the rest of the collection directly from Leatherman's website.
The Leatherman Trac, a premium outdoor knife, effortlessly harmonizes with an active lifestyle and home-and-garden outdoor-living pursuits, showcasing both style and functionality. Its available colorways align with varied preferences, offering choices between Alpine, Earth Brown, and Jet Black.
