Weighing a mere 5 ounces, the new OKC Hiking Knife is a lightweight fixed blade knife that won’t weigh you down or let you down.

An important feature when faced with the elements outdoors. The quality continues beyond the blade and handle, with its included leather sheath with belt loop for convenient storage and an easy carry. The new OKC Hiking Knife is proudly made in the USA.
