Heretic Nephilim - Jade G-10 - Battleworn Blade

Medieval Brutality Meets Modern Precision

Heretic Nephilim - Jade G-10 - Battleworn Blade

At a full foot in length with a 6.5" symmetrical dagger blade, the Nephilim strikes that perfect balance between lightweight maneuverability and devastating power. This is TJ Marfione's second fixed blade design for Heretic, and it shows his understanding of what makes a fighting knife work - not just look mean. Ground from a single piece of 0.210" thick Elmax steel, this isn't some wall-hanger fantasy piece but a legitimate combat tool built for real-world application.

The fuller with milled holes running the blade's spine represents intelligent weight reduction engineering - removing material where it's not needed while maintaining the structural integrity required for hard use. That battleworn finish hides scratches from real work while the Elmax composition delivers vanadium carbide edge retention with chromium carbides for corrosion resistance. At 60-61 HRC, this holds an edge through extended use while remaining tough enough for lateral stress and impact.

Those 3D machined jade G-10 scales aren't just cut - they're contoured to lock into your hand naturally. Deep jimping along the sides provides precision grip control, while the textured tang areas ensure your hand stays indexed even under stress. The integral cross guard keeps your hand off the blade during thrusts, while the extended pommel serves double duty as a striking surface and lanyard attachment point.

The included nylon sheath is admittedly basic for this price tier, but the knife itself represents genuine USA-made precision from a family shop that hand-tunes every piece. This is small-batch production where tolerances are measured in thousandths, not mass-produced tactical wannabes. When you need a fixed blade that bridges the gap between practicality and combat capability, the Nephilim delivers substance over style.
