Although in most situations fixed blade knives are to be preferred over folders, there may be times where a folder is needed. It is for those times we created the NorthmanF. Like our other blades, the NorthmanF was designed with combatives and backcountry in mind with edge geometry optimized for thrusting and with a toughness to handle backcountry chore.
One of the main drawbacks of any folder is it’s slower deployment and less secure grip as you are opening the folder. With this in mind, the Amtac Blades NorthmanF comes standard with a belt sheath so that you have the flexibility to carry this folder in a blade locked open configuration. Carrying the blade in this manner will insure a draw stroke just as secure and fast as your normal fixed blade draw stroke.
Alternatively you can carry the Amtac Blades NorthmanF folded in your pocket when a low profile is desired.
