Key benefits

- 💬 What the community says
- “Best dive knife I’ve used. Cuts rope like nothing, doesn’t rust after weeks in saltwater.”
- “The serrations stay sharp a long time, but I wouldn't baton with it – not that kind of knife.”
- “Light, fast and aggressive – it’s a working knife, not a collector’s piece.”
Maintenance and care
- Blade: Although H2 is extremely stainless, occasional wiping and dry storage are still recommended
- Sharpening: The serrated edge is best sharpened professionally or with triangular sharpening systems (e.g. Sharpmaker)
- Sheath: Easy to wash, requires no special care, but tighten the G‑Clip as needed
