Heat | Takumitak – robust outdoor knife for versatile tasks

The Takumitak Heat is a powerful fixed blade knife with a striking Tanto blade shape. This outdoor knife combines sturdy construction with practical functionality. The 3Cr13 steel and black oxide finish make this knife ideal for everyday use and outdoor activities.

Experience from the Shogun team

During a weekend of bushcraft, the balance of this knife immediately stood out. The ergonomic grip sits comfortably in the hand, even during prolonged use. The Tanto profile proved its worth when making fire sticks and working with rope.

Performance and sharpness of this outdoor knife

The 3Cr13 steel offers a good balance between sharpness and ease of maintenance. With a hardness of 56 HRC, the blade remains reasonably sharp for a long time and is easy to resharpen. The plain-edge cutting edge makes this knife suitable for cutting rope, wood, and general camp tasks. The Tanto point excels in precision work.

Grip and ease of use

The handle provides a firm, comfortable grip that remains reliable even in wet conditions. As a fixed blade knife, the Heat does not require an opening mechanism or lock – it is always ready for use. The included polymer sheath ensures safe transport.

Who is this outdoor knife suitable for?

This knife is perfect for bushcrafters and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a reliable workhorse. The blade length of 11.43 cm makes it suitable for medium-duty tasks. Beginners will appreciate the low-maintenance features, while experienced users can take advantage of the versatility of the Tanto design.

Maintenance and durability

The 3Cr13 steel is fairly rust-resistant, but regular cleaning and light oiling are recommended for optimal performance. The black oxide blade finish provides extra protection against corrosion. Sharpen the knife with a sharpening stone at an angle of about 20 degrees for best results.
