Model: CS39LSFC • UPC: 705442016717 • Blade Length: 6.75" • Handle Length: 5.0"
Honor the classic fighting/utility knife legacy with modern performance. The Cold Steel Leatherneck Semper-Fi pairs a mission-ready 6.75-inch clip-point blade of D2 tool steel in a black matte powder-coat with a rock-solid Griv-Ex™ handle that’s deeply checkered and guarded by a double quillon for confident control. Purpose-built for hard work around camp, range, or ranch, this full-size fixed blade ships with a belt-loop sheath so it’s ready to ride the moment it arrives.
Why the Leatherneck Semper-Fi Stands Out
D2 Tool Steel Muscle: Favored for edge retention and abrasion resistance, D2 keeps a keen working edge through cardboard, cordage, and wood.
Matte Powder-Coated Blade: The low-glare coating helps resist corrosion, reduces reflections, and glides through material with less drag.
Clip-Point, Plain Edge: Classic tip geometry for precise piercing with a long, straight section that excels at controlled slicing and notching.
Deep-Checkered Griv-Ex™ Handle: Textured for serious traction in rain, sweat, or gloves; shaped for neutral indexing and long sessions.
Double Quillon Guard: Forward and rear guards keep the hand anchored behind the edge during powerful push cuts.
Carry-Ready: Includes a belt-loop sheath with secure retention for dependable field carry.

Real-World Performance
The Leatherneck Semper-Fi is tuned for control and confidence. The clip-point tip handles fine tasks like scoring and puncture starts, while the long cutting edge powers through rope, webbing, and heavy packaging. D2 holds a razor edge through abrasive media and the powder-coat keeps glare down on bright days. The deep-checkered Griv-Ex™ handle stays planted in the hand, and the double guard adds assurance when you’re driving hard cuts.
Ideal Use Cases

Ergonomics & Handling

Confident Indexing: Guard and handle geometry guide thumb placement and edge alignment.
Balanced Control: Weighted for lively tip control without feeling handle-heavy.
Sheath & Carry
Belt-Loop Sheath Included: Retention-focused carry with a smooth draw; mount on belt, pack panel, or chest rig according to your setup.
Low-Glare Profile: Matte blade and black hardware maintain a professional, discreet look.
Care & Maintenance (D2 Steel)
Wipe & Dry: After moisture or acidic media, clean and dry the blade to protect the edge.
Edge Touch-Ups: D2 responds well to ceramic or fine diamond stones—frequent light passes keep it screaming sharp.
Light Oil: Add a thin film on the edge line before storage, especially in humid climates.
Sheath Hygiene: Keep grit out to preserve finish and ensure consistent retention.
Safety & Responsibility
Cut on stable surfaces and in a safe direction; keep the hand behind the guard.
Store sheathed and out of reach of children.
Follow local laws regarding fixed-blade carry and transport.
