[Duncans ProForge] Navigator Black, Fixed Blade

The Navigator is a robust ProForge fixed blade knife designed for versatility and reliability in outdoor and everyday tasks.

Its long blade excels at chopping, making it ideal for preparing firewood or tackling heavier cutting jobs. The extended handle provides ample grip, ensuring secure handling even in challenging conditions, while the innovative sheath attachments—a compass, ferro rod, and torch—add essential survival features that truly set it apart.

Crafted with the camper in mind, the Navigator is your dependable companion for routine chores around the campfire, farm work, or any adventure that demands a solid, all-purpose knife. Whether you're splitting kindling, processing game, or simply needing a trustworthy tool by your side, the Navigator is built to endure.

 

Robust Build

Available in all-black or green variants, this model features a sleek black ABS handle that's fully water-resistant and secured with three heavy-duty Torx screws for maximum durability. The full-tang construction, coated in black oxide throughout, delivers exceptional resilience against shock, impact, and wear.

 

Blade

The entire blade, including the tang, is forged from 5Cr13MoV stainless steel; a balanced alloy that holds a sharp edge well, sharpens easily, and offers ample toughness and rust resistance to handle a wide range of demanding tasks without compromise.

 

Sheath

We prioritized the sheath in the Navigator's design, giving it a stylish carbon-fiber effect accented by Torx screws for a rugged, modern look. Made from durable ABS, it's precision-molded to the knife for a secure, click-in fit. Fully modular, the sheath adapts to your needs: wear it left- or right-handed, vertically, horizontally, diagonally, or in any orientation. It incorporates a simplified Tek-Lok system, renowned as one of the world's most reliable mounting solutions for belts, packs, or gear.

 

Trident Survival System

What truly elevates the Navigator is our exclusive Trident Survival System (TSS)—a bolted housing on the sheath containing a compass, ferro rod (Firesteel), and torch. For navigation, simply hold the sheath horizontal to use the compass. The ferro rod sparks reliably after scraping off its black coating to expose the material underneath; we recommend using the spine of the knife (not the sharp edge) for optimal striking. The torch activates with a simple twist of the head, providing instant light in emergencies—ensuring you're equipped for any situation, from routine outings to unexpected survival scenarios.

Packaged in a premium Duncans gift box, the Navigator includes a cleaning cloth and care instructions to keep your knife in top condition for years to come.
