[United Cutlery] Gil Hibben Legacy III Black Micarta

Feast your eyes on the Gil Hibben Legacy III Knife, a sleek slab of steel poetry that’s more art than arm, though it’s got the chops to back up its looks. The 7-inch 5Cr15 stainless steel blade dances with a mirror polish, flashing like a shard of daylight, sharp enough to whisper through paper yet sturdy enough to hold its own. It’s a more than capable blade, sure, but one that begs to be admired in a display. It would be a shame to scratch such a beautiful piece.

Black Micarta on the handle, layered and tough as a barroom brawler, shaped to hug your hand like it’s telling you secrets. Beautiful Red G10 Liners really pop around the design. Polished stainless steel guards and a sub-hilt frame it up, gleaming like chrome on a hot rod, keeping it classy while it stretches to 12.5 inches overall—a lean, mean silhouette that dominates a shelf or case.

It slides into a black leather sheath, stamped with the Hibben logo, rugged and snug like a tailored coat, ready to hang proud or tuck away. Cooked up by Gil and Wesley Hibben for United Cutlery, this Legacy III is a father-son pact in steel—Gil’s signature lasered on, a nod to over 50 years of blade-crafting swagger. It’s got Muela’s Spanish echo in its bones, too.

For the collector who’d rather frame it than fray it, or the man who likes his tools with a pedigree, the Gil Hibben Legacy III Micarta is your ticket. Grab it—let it strut, let it shine, let it sit pretty as the king of your lineup.
