[Duncans ProForge] Govvie, Black G10, Drop Point

The Govvie is built for the kind of work you do every day... whether you’re cutting through tough materials on a construction site, slicing rope or cable in the field, or tackling whatever mess a job throws at you.

Tough Blade

Its D2 tool steel blade is a beast: this stuff is known for its durability and edge retention, meaning it’ll stay sharp even after you’ve been hacking through drywall, stripping wire, or carving up wood for hours. D2’s got that sweet spot of hardness- so it’s tough without being brittle, ready to take a beating without chipping or dulling too fast. You’re not babysitting this blade with constant sharpening; it’s made to keep up with you.

You’ve got options with the Govvie: four variants total, with two blade shapes; Tanto or Drop Point; and two finishes. The Tanto’s got that angular, reinforced tip, perfect for piercing or heavy-duty cutting.

The Drop Point’s more versatile, great for slicing and general-purpose cutting, whether you’re breaking down boxes or prepping materials. Pick the Titanium Nitride-coated blade with green handles for a durable finish that pops visually, or go for the black oxide with black G10 for a stealthy, rugged look that helps protect from corrosion. Both finishes add an extra layer of protection to the D2, which isn’t fully stainless, so you get a bit more forgiveness if you’re working in wet or humid conditions.

 

Resistent Handle

The handle is where the Govvie shines for a workman. The G10 scales- green or black; are lightweight yet near enough bombproof, giving you a secure grip even if your hands are sweaty, greasy, or gloved thanks to the textured surface. G10’s practically indestructible, resisting moisture and wear, so it’s not going to crack or slip when you’re bearing down on a cut.

The ergonomics are spot-on, with no hot spots to blister your hand during long jobs. Plus, the linerlock is rock-solid, engaging with zero wiggle, so you can trust it won’t fold on you when you’re putting in real force.

The ball-bearing action is smooth as butter. You flick the flipper tab or thumbstuds, and the blade snaps open with authority- one-handed, every time. Closing’s just as easy, which matters when you’re juggling tools or materials. That pocket clip keeps it handy, sitting low and secure in your pocket or on your belt, so it’s always within reach without getting in the way. At 7.8 inches open and 4.5 inches closed, with a 3.3-inch blade, it’s compact enough for EDC but substantial enough to handle serious tasks. And at just 5oz., it won’t weigh you down.

 

Great For Gifting & Easy Maintenance

The Premium Duncans Gift Box is a nice touch; comes with a care leaflet and cleaning cloth, so you can keep the Govvie in top shape. This isn’t some flimsy throwaway knife; it’s a tool that’s meant to last, designed for guys who don’t have time for gear that fails.

Whether you’re in construction, electrical, plumbing, or just need a blade that can keep up with your hustle, the Govvie’s got your back. It’s not the cheapest knife out there, but for the quality- D2 steel, smooth action, and a handle that won’t quit; it’s a workman’s best friend.
