Merry and Lightweight
Iowa's 7 Forge strips the fixed blade down to essentials with the Minimalist. At 2.79 oz with a 3.75" CPM-154 blade ground to just 0.093" thick, this knife practically floats on your belt. Black canvas Micarta scales mounted on flared stainless tubes keep weight minimal while the blasted finish hides trail wear. Black leather sheath included.
Tim Ogg and Jessie Wipperman—the latter a Forged in Fire champion—built 7 Forge on the principle that working knives don't need to weigh you down. That thin blade stock and full flat grind mean this drop point slices rather than wedges through material, making quick work of everything from food prep to game processing. CPM-154 handles the corrosion and edge retention duties without fuss. Overall length runs 7.75" with a 4" handle that fills the hand despite the featherweight build. Made in Iowa with a lifetime warranty.
