Joker Knife Trampero

The Trampero encompasses a robust full-tang blade crafted from Sandvik 14C28N (58-60HRC) 3.7mm thick steel. The ‘working’ section of the blade is 10cm long and 27mm wide. The walnut scales are contoured for a comfortable fit and include an elegant swelling and downward sweep on its’ edge side providing some protection from a hand slipping forward on to the blade so to ensure a secure grip. The handle is large enough to accommodate fairly large hands very nicely, meaning that the blade is easily controlled during use.

‘Bushcraft and Survival’ knives must be able to handle each one of the several tasks that might arise in an emergency situation (water, shelter, warmth and food) where surviving the experience is paramount. The knife must respond appropriately to the various situations that might be met in satisfying the supply of each of these.

Such tasks include whittling, notching, lapping and shaping tasks which prove simple with this well-balanced knife, shape an efficient digging stick from a suitable branch, hack through or be baton-driven into the toughest wood are easily achieved with the well weighted, relatively hefty 3.7mm thick, razor-sharp, flat ground blade based on the ‘grandfather’s knife of America. The flat grind allows for easy sharpening in the field as well as providing a finer cutting edge for meat preparation. The Trampero’s drop-point blade means that it can be used for skinning and the sturdiness you might seek for jointing a carcass and harvesting meat.

The Campero is presented with well-finished and robust, top-grain hide 3mm thick which is double sewn and reinforced with rivets where necessary. As the rivets are hollow, a thong can be passed through them to tie the sheath along a belt in a horizontal carry or fasten it to webbing straps allowing for a range of flexible ‘carries’ that would suit any situation. Two belt loops will accept a 50mm wide belt or the other for a lower carry is a loop attached by a metal ‘square’ which will accept a belt up to about 65mm wide. This latter loop closes with two strong press-studs that allow the sheath to be fastened to the belt without unfastening the belt buckle. This is most convenient when you have driven to the location where you will be hunting but did not want the inconvenience of having your knife strapped to your belt during the journey.
