Knives, pocket knives and tools for hunting and outdoor use

Buy knives and pocket knives for hunting and outdoor use

At Carbin Store, you will find a wide selection of knives and pocket knives for hunting, bushcraft, survival, outdoor activities, professional work and everyday use. The category includes fixed-blade knives, folding knives, multi-tools, axes, machetes and products intended for edge maintenance.

When choosing, consider the intended activity, blade type and size, steel, handle ergonomics, locking mechanism and carrying system. Each tool is designed to meet different requirements, so we recommend checking the features of each product before buying.

Which type of knife or pocket knife should you choose?

The first step is to determine how the tool will be used. A fixed-blade knife provides a stable construction for hunting, bushcraft and fieldwork. A pocket knife takes up less space when carried, while a multi-tool can perform a range of tasks with a single product.

This comparison provides general guidance. The suitability of each product depends on its particular specifications and the intended tasks.

Fixed-blade hunting knives

Fixed-blade hunting knives provide stability, control and straightforward cleaning. They are a common choice for different tasks during a hunting trip, particularly when a robust construction and a handle that provides a secure grip are required.

Before choosing a hunting knife, compare the blade length, shape and thickness, steel type, weight and sheath. Its size should suit the planned task and allow comfortable handling. Avoid selecting a model solely because of its dimensions or appearance.

Pocket knives for hunting, fieldwork and everyday use

Pocket knives combine a folding blade with a format that is easy to store and carry. Depending on the model, they may feature different locking systems, opening mechanisms, pocket clips and handles designed for hunting, work or everyday use.

Before buying, check the knife’s open and closed dimensions, weight, blade length and locking mechanism. A compact pocket knife can be practical for smaller everyday tasks, while a more robust model may be better suited to particular jobs during hunting or outdoor activities.

At Carbin Store, you can compare classic Opinel pocket knives and folding models from Spyderco and Benchmade.

Knives for bushcraft, survival and outdoor use

Bushcraft and outdoor knives are intended for common tasks in the countryside, such as cutting rope, preparing materials, carving wood or setting up a campsite. The necessary strength and dimensions will depend on the particular activity.

Within this family, compare blade thickness, edge geometry, tang construction, grip and sheath. Some models feature a spine suitable for use with a ferro rod or other particular functions, but these characteristics must be checked individually.

To find models designed for these activities, visit the collections from Morakniv, Gerber Gear and Aitor.

Tactical knives and pocket knives

Tactical knives and tactical pocket knives generally prioritise durability, control, access and safe carrying. This designation includes fixed-blade and folding models with different characteristics, so they should not be chosen solely for their appearance.

Compare blade shape and thickness, hand protection, ergonomics, opening or locking system and carrying method. The right choice will depend on the intended task and the environment in which the knife will be used.

You can explore the collections from K25, KA-BAR and Martínez Albainox.

Multi-tools for fieldwork and professional use

Multi-tools combine several solutions in a compact format. Depending on the model, they may include pliers, a blade, screwdrivers, scissors, a saw, a file, a can opener and other functions for minor repairs or everyday jobs.

Before choosing, consider which functions you will actually use, along with the weight, closed dimensions and locking systems. A tool with more functions is not always the best option if it is too heavy or bulky to carry comfortably.

For this type of product, explore the collections from Leatherman and Victorinox.

Axes and machetes for specific tasks

This category also includes axes and machetes for particular fieldwork, land maintenance, camping and outdoor activities. When choosing, consider the size, weight, handle length, blade shape and carrying system.

A machete is designed to make broad cuts through materials suited to its construction. An axe concentrates the force of an impact on a particular area. Both tools require sufficient space, suitable technique and appropriate safety measures.

Sharpening stones and knife sharpeners

Maintaining the edge correctly improves control and cutting efficiency. This category also includes sharpening stones and knife sharpeners for caring for knives and pocket knives at home or in the field.

A coarse sharpening surface can help restore a worn edge, while finer grits are used to refine and maintain it. Before sharpening, check the blade geometry and follow the angle recommended for the model.

The Buck Knives collection includes knives, pocket knives and different solutions for edge maintenance.

Nordic knives and collectable pieces

Alongside functional tools for hunting and outdoor use, the selection includes pieces inspired by Nordic and medieval traditions. The Njord collection includes knives, axes, machetes, Viking seaxes, decorative swords and fire-starting sets.

For this type of product, it is essential to check the intended purpose stated in its description. Some pieces are designed solely for display or collecting and must not be used as functional tools.

How to choose a knife or pocket knife

• Activity: decide whether you need the tool for hunting, bushcraft, outdoor activities, work, everyday use or collecting.
• Fixed or folding blade: a fixed blade provides stability, while a pocket knife is easier to store and carry.
• Steel type: compare corrosion resistance, hardness, edge retention and ease of sharpening.
• Blade shape: the profile should suit the type of cut and the intended tasks.
• Dimensions and weight: seek a balance between working capacity, control and carrying comfort.
• Handle: it should provide a comfortable and stable grip under the expected conditions.
• Locking system: on a pocket knife, check the mechanism and how easily it can be operated.
• Sheath or carrying system: consider blade protection, attachment and accessibility.

How to care for a knife or pocket knife

Clean and dry the blade completely after every use, particularly if it has been exposed to moisture, soil, organic residue or salty environments. Carbon-steel models require particular care to reduce the risk of corrosion.

Inspect the edge, handle and sheath regularly. On pocket knives, also check the opening and locking mechanisms. Do not use the blade as a pry bar, screwdriver or striking tool unless the manufacturer specifically states that the model is intended for that function.

Do you need help choosing your knife?

The activity, blade type, steel, dimensions and carrying method all influence the decision. If you are still unsure, read our guide to choosing the right knife for each use and discover which characteristics you should compare before buying.
