Knives of Alaska Cub Bear D2 Fixed Blade Caping Knife Black

The Knives of Alaska Cub Bear is a compact fixed-blade caping knife made for the careful, detailed cutting involved in field dressing game and preparing a hide for mounting. This black Suregrip version pairs a 2.75-inch plain-edge D2 tool steel blade with an overall length of 6.5 inches, giving hunters and taxidermists a small, maneuverable tool for working around areas where a larger hunting knife can be difficult to control. Its narrow caping profile and exceptionally fine point are suited to close work around facial features, joints and other confined areas where preserving the hide and making accurate cuts are important. The blade has a tumbled finish, an 18- to 20-degree cutting-edge bevel and a published hardness of 57–59 HRC. D2 tool steel provides the durable cutting edge expected from a purpose-built field knife while keeping the Cub Bear light enough to carry as a specialized companion to a larger skinning or field-dressing blade. The black Suregrip handle is shaped with double finger choils to help establish a controlled hand position during delicate cuts. Its slightly compliant, textured construction offers a practical alternative to traditional natural-handle materials and complements the knife’s straightforward working design. At only 2.2 ounces, the knife adds little weight to a hunting pack or belt setup. A fitted leather sheath is included for covered storage and convenient field carry, protecting the fine blade point when the knife is not in use. Made in the USA, this Cub Bear configuration is a focused hunting tool for sportsmen who want a dedicated caping knife rather than relying on a general-purpose blade for every stage of game processing.
