Blade Design & Handling
The Jack Rabbit uses a drop point blade profile designed to balance everyday cutting versatility with controlled tip placement. The curved cutting edge supports slicing, while the blade shape lends itself to a variety of routine utility tasks.
The Ironwood handle scales provide a natural contact surface and a distinctive appearance. Because wood is a natural material, grain, color, and texture can vary between individual knives.
As with any fixed-blade knife, use a secure grip, keep fingers clear of the cutting edge, and cut away from the body whenever practical. Ensure the knife is securely seated in its sheath before carrying or storing it.
Care & Maintenance
- Clean the blade after use and dry it before storage
- Maintain the MagnaCut edge with suitable sharpening equipment
- Wipe the blade with a soft cloth to remove dirt and residue
- Avoid prolonged exposure of the Ironwood scales to moisture
- Keep the wood handle away from harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners
- Allow the leather sheath to dry naturally if it becomes damp
- Avoid storing the knife for extended periods inside a wet leather sheath
- Inspect the sheath regularly for wear and secure retention
Routine cleaning and appropriate care help preserve the blade's cutting performance, the natural appearance of the Ironwood handle, and the condition of the leather sheath over time.
