Named after the rugged Selkirk Mountain range beginning in the Northern Panhandle of Idaho the Selkirk is a midsized knife with added features to help maximize survival in rugged and tough conditions. In addition to the 420HC steel blade the Selkirk features a Micarta handle with steel bolsters (rear bolster can be used as an improvised hammer) and a heavy duty belt sheath that can be configured for horizontal or vertical carry. Included with the sheath is a fire starter/whistle tool.
