The Cleaver V3 is built for people who do not mess around with their EDC. Camping, hiking the backwoods, or slicing cardboard at home, it brings serious cutting performance in a compact frame. The blade is razor-sharp Sandvik 14C28N, known for holding an edge, resisting rust, and taking a beating without flinching, and the cleaver shape gives you extra chopping power and slicing control for food prep, utility work, and everything in between.
This is the third generation of our cleaver series, and the V3 gets a straight razor vibe: clean lines, a sleek profile, and a no-nonsense cutting edge that is as sharp as it looks. G10 scales keep the grip secure in any conditions, ceramic ball bearings keep the action snappy with an effortless drop-shut close, and the deep carry clip works for lefties and righties alike. Rugged, compact, and built like a tank.
Blackout: Blackwash blade with black G10 scales. Full blackout, all business.
Every Cleaver V3 ships with:


The bold cleaver-style blade is Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel: razor-sharp edge retention, excellent corrosion resistance, and serious toughness. Extended jimping runs along the spine for extra grip and control when you need to bear down, from slicing and food prep to precision work and the tougher jobs. A sharpening choil makes edge maintenance easy, and the blackwash finish hides carry wear.

The black G10 scales give you a secure, four-finger grip in any condition: wet, dry, hot, or cold. The ergonomic shaping sits comfortably in your hand, with no hotspots and no hand fatigue, even through long cutting sessions.

The Cleaver V3 flips out with authority on ceramic ball bearings and a tuned detent: snappy, reliable, and built for one-handed deployment. When it is time to close, the blade drops shut effortlessly. It is the smooth, fidget-friendly action knife fans love.

The reversible deep carry clip rides the Cleaver V3 low and out of sight until you need it. It is secured with countersunk screws and our signature "swoop" design for snag-free in-and-out carry and the clean, low profile Off-Grid is known for. Lefty or righty, the knife stays secure, discreet, and ready to roll.

Out in the wild or crushing daily tasks, the Cleaver V3 is built to handle it all: tough, sharp, smooth, and dependable, and it looks pretty cool doing it. Like every Off-Grid knife, it is backed by our Lifetime Replacement Guarantee and old-school customer service from real people. Use it hard and carry it often. We have your back.
RUGGED DESIGN. RAZOR PERFORMANCE.
