Auxiliary Manufacturing Karl Dark Stonewash AEB-L Fixed Blade with Natural Layered G10 Handles and Glow Spacer

The Auxiliary Manufacturing Karl is a handcrafted fixed blade designed by knifemaker Michael Jarvis with an emphasis on strength, control, and secure handling. Originally developed in collaboration with a law enforcement officer, the Karl features a 4-inch drop point blade crafted from AEB-L stainless steel, offering a practical balance of toughness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. Its pronounced swedge, fine piercing tip, and gently curved cutting edge provide versatility for a range of cutting tasks, while its distinctive blade geometry complements the knife's purposeful design.

The sculpted G10 handle features deeply contoured finger grooves and a pronounced bird's-beak pommel that helps maintain a secure grip in multiple hand positions. Its ergonomic profile provides a comfortable, controlled hold, while the durable G10 construction offers stability and resistance to moisture and temperature changes. Carefully shaped contours and exposed hardware highlight the attention to detail characteristic of Auxiliary Manufacturing's custom work.

Measuring approximately 8.5 inches overall, the Karl combines substantial fixed blade construction with a carefully shaped handle for controlled handling. Handmade in the USA, the Karl reflects Michael Jarvis's distinctive approach to functional knife design, combining aggressive styling, practical ergonomics, and individualized craftsmanship.
