What are the advantages of a fixed blade knife over a folding knife?

Fixed blade knives offer greater strength and durability because they have a solid, non-folding construction. They are also easier to clean and maintain, making them ideal for heavy-duty tasks like camping, hunting, and survival.

What materials are used to make fixed blade knives?

Fixed blade knives are made from high-quality materials like stainless steel or carbon steel for the blade, ensuring durability and sharpness. Handles are often crafted from materials like wood, G10, or micarta for a secure and comfortable grip.

How do I maintain and care for a fixed blade knife?

To maintain your fixed blade knife, regularly clean the blade and handle, apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust, and sharpen the blade as needed. Proper storage, such as keeping the knife in its sheath, also helps protect it from damage.

Are fixed blade knives good for everyday carry (EDC)?

While fixed blade knives can be used for everyday carry, they are generally larger and less portable than folding knives. If you prefer a fixed blade for EDC, look for compact designs with a secure sheath for easy carry.
