The Ridgeback is Off-Grid's first true bushcraft knife. Most bushcraft knives are on the smaller side, well, that's not our style. We went the other direction and made the Ridgeback a large fixed blade with chopping and batoning in mind. The blade is a full flat grind offering a very slicey and also robust blade to chop or thin slicing. The handle was designed to choke down to a three-finger grip for comfortable chopping and hacking wood for your campfire. The spear-point/drop point blade has a wide belly and generous jimping creating a comfortable tool that can carve, cut, split, and perform just about any task involving outdoor survival. The blade steel is Cryo D2 which offers excellent hardness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. Call the Ridgeback a bushcraft knife, survival knife, or camp knife, no matter how you slice it, this is a true survival tool that's ready to throw down in any and all harsh environments.

The name "Ridgeback" is a fierce hunting dog with signature 'ridges' along the spine of the dog's back. It's no coincidence that the Off-Grid Ridgeback has plenty of jimping along its spine which offers a grippy landing spot for your thumb and fingers.
