The Hunter 5 TM is one of SlicKnives’ original marque models in our Premium SlicKnives series and is built for a lifetime of use.

This classic drop point blade is designed to help make quick work of dressing game in the field and to make processing that game easier once you get back to camp or home.  Regardless of where you’re chasing game, the 5” blade on the Hunter 5 is sure to become a favorite choice in your collection!

Designed in the U.S. by an experienced big game hunter, our expert knife making partners in Albacete, Spain, have hand crafted it from Sandvik 14c28n stainless steel; it will be your rugged companion that you can depend on while hunting.  You can rely on its toughness, enjoy the edge that easy to keep sharp when the work is done, and not worry about it corroding when the weather’s not been so nice or when you get back to camp late at night after packing out your game.

The Hunter 5 comes sharp out of the box with a full flat grind and has a secondary beveled edge for strength.  The curved spine helps make field dressing game go smoothly, and the rounded belly helps tackle skinning with ease.  To provide a consistent experience while skinning your game, we’ve included jimping along the spine for safe handling.

Black canvas micarta next to the full-tang blade provides a good-looking grip that helps get the work done safely even when it’s gets slippery.  The ergonomic grip is mounted with three sets of stainless screws for a durable handle and includes a hole in the handle that’s ready for a safety cord / lanyard or length of brightly colored paracord to help you find your Hunter 5 after you set it down for a moment when getting work done.

The premium black leather sheath allows you to keep your Hunter 5 safely on your belt or packed away, so that it’s ready to take on the next hunt.

The Hunter 5 is built to take care of game and SlicKnives is most certain that you’ll be pleased with your purchase after your next successful hunt.  Grab one today, so that you have one along on your next hunt!

Solid all purpose knife! Hunter 5

Was excited to recieved this knife. I had been looking for a new all purpose knife that could handle the use and abuse of remote camping, high country hunting and everything else i could throw it at.
As with the Dangler I ordered, the website was easy to use and browse. The knife and sheath were well described on the website which allowed me to choose the exact knife I was looking for.
The order was prompt and arrived in a very timely manner.
I was excited to open the box and even more excited when I seen the quality, appearance, and craftmanship of the knife and sheath. The ferrous rod is a nice addition and adds to the outdoor functionality I was looking for.
The knife is solid!!! I love the grey laminate look of the black canvas micarta grip. It would be nice if the grips had a bit more texture to prevent slipping especially while wearing gloves. But the top of the blade does have groves in it to allow for texture with your thumb while using for this purpose.
The sheath is well designed, provides a firm grip to the knife so it doesn't slip out but allows for an easy deliberate removal of the blade.
Extremely happy with this knife and look forward to this fall to put it to the test while whitetail and elk hunting!

As expected

Everything came as it should and on time. I got some extras with it which is always appreciated and the knife feels wonderful in the hand it fits tight in it's sheath.
Makes me eager to find an excuse to go camping this spring

Great for processing

I used this when processing my deer. It was awesome for quartering it up and starting the large deboning process. The handle was excellent to hold and didn't have any slippage. The blade remained sharp the whole time. I would highly recommend this knife to others. It is worth the money.
