Silver Stag Corky Cutter ~
Silver Stag Corky Cutter (CC2.75) is a compact fixed-blade hunting knife designed primarily as a high-performance caping tool. Part of the Slab Series, it features full-tang construction with natural North American antler handles, making it a popular choice for professional game processing.
Design and Build
- Blade Material: According to Silver Stag, the blade is made from D2 Tool Steel, an air-hardened high-carbon and high-chromium steel known for extreme wear resistance and durability.
- Handle: The knife features full-tang slab antler handles (typically elk or moose), which are polished and pinned through the blade tang to provide superior control and balance.
- Construction: It is manufactured with a Rockwell Hardness of 60 to 62, ensuring it retains a factory edge even after extended heavy use.
- Sheath: Each unit comes with a handmade leather pouch sheath, often featuring an antler tip leather lanyard that secures the handle.
Technical Specifications
- Blade Length: 2.75 inches.
- Overall Length: Approximately 7.25 to 7.5 inches.
- Blade Thickness: 0.139 inches.
- Weight: Approximately 2.96 ounces.
- Origin: 100% Made in the USA.
Performance and Care
- Intended Use: Experts at KnivesPlus note it is an "excellent caper," ideal for detailed game processing and field dressing.
- Maintenance: While the high chromium content provides some corrosion resistance, Silver Stag recommends keeping the blade oiled, as D2 steel can rust if stored wet or in damp conditions.
