Description

The 5.11 Tactical CFK 5 is a heavy-duty fixed blade designed specifically for camp utility, bushcraft, and demanding outdoor tasks. Moving up from the CFK 4, this model offers a longer, thicker blade for increased leverage and stability. Engineered to provide confident control, it features a balanced 5" blade that is compact enough for fine tasks yet rugged enough for unpredictable field conditions. Whether you are processing wood or preparing a campsite, the CFK 5 is built to be your most reliable high-use tool.

Features

High-Durability Steel: Crafted from 4135 alloy steel with a 58–60 RC hardness, providing a balance of long-wearing edge retention and the ability to perform field maintenance.
Heavy-Duty Profile: A substantial 0.2" blade thickness offers the lateral strength and stability required for tougher utility work and prying tasks.
Versatile 5" Blade: The extended blade length provides more cutting surface and improved chopping capability compared to smaller field knives.
Customizable Grip: Features injection-molded FRN (Fiber-Reinforced Nylon) scales that provide an aggressive, grippy texture. Like the CFK 4, these scales are removable for easy cleaning or for users who prefer a custom paracord wrap.
Ambidextrous Carry: Includes an injection-molded FRN sheath that can be configured for either left- or right-hand mounting on belts or packs.
