Mettle Lord – Edge for the Everyday

Out in the field, in a warehouse, on the jobsite, or just living life—you need a knife that can take a beating and stay sharp. That’s where the Mettle Lord comes in. This isn’t a gimmick blade. It’s a purpose-built EDC tanto that combines durability, piercing strength, and razor-sharp slicing capability—all in a slim, carryable form.

Crafted from 14C28N stainless, it holds an edge like a champ and shrugs off corrosion. The Western tanto blade is more than just tactical flair—it’s a workhorse. With its reinforced point and wide hollow grind, the Mettle Lord punches through heavy materials, slices clean through rope and cardboard, and handles skinning or utility tasks with precision. It’s not flashy. It’s functional.

The G10 handle offers a secure grip even when things get slick, and the 3mm blade stock gives it backbone without bulk. Add in a screw-release blade assembly and you've got a knife that’s not just strong—it's serviceable.

Call it a daily carry with bite. Call it an edge with attitude. The Mettle Lord is built for those who need their tools to work as hard as they do.

Care Instructions

KNIVES ARE DESIGNED FOR CUTTING
Don’t throw, pound, pry or chop with a knife. It’s not safe and if you damage the knife using it that way, it may void the warranty. Strong impact or twisting can also damage your knife or worse, cause an injury. If you have a locking blade, always check that the locking mechanism is in working order before you use it.

Store your knife in a dry place, out of the sheath. Lightly wipe the blade with clean oil two to three times a year to keep rust from starting. You may need to oil more often if you live near water.  Cleaning and caring for your knife will maintain performance and enhance the life your knife.

If you find the metal has a blue, grey or black color, it is a sign of oxidation and a precursor of rust.  Stainless steel does not discolor easily. If you do notice a change in the color of the metal, clean it immediately. It’s a sign of rust waiting to happen. 

 Discoloration is common to non-stainless steel. But regular cleaning will keep the metal from rusting.
