Product Description
Most fixed blades make you choose between tactical capability and everyday versatility. The Muela Phantom 02MU217 refuses that compromise — a full-tang 4.57" fixed blade in X50CrMoV15 stainless steel that carries cleanly on a belt for daily use, performs in the field for hunting and outdoor work, and arrives in a Kydex sheath ready for serious carry. The red anodized screw accents are the only thing about this knife that isn't purely functional — and even they look intentional.
The Phantom is built full-tang — a single continuous piece of steel from blade tip through handle — giving it the structural foundation that separates a genuine working fixed blade from a knife assembled for display. The blade is ground from X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, a high-alloy German stainless steel well established in premium European hunting and tactical knives. Its chemistry — approximately 0.50% carbon with chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium additions — delivers a reliable performance profile: solid corrosion resistance for carry in humid, wet, or field environments; consistent edge behavior under working loads; and a sharpenability profile that responds well to ceramic rods and field stones without requiring specialized equipment. At 0.16" blade thickness, the Phantom's geometry balances cutting efficiency with the structural depth needed for a knife that will be carried hard and used seriously. The uncoated satin finish keeps the blade clean-looking, easy to maintain, and free of coatings that can chip or peel with sustained use.
- Blade: 4.57" X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, satin finish, plain edge — full-tang construction at 0.16" stock thickness balancing cutting efficiency with structural durability for EDC and field use
- Handle: Contoured sand brown Micarta scales with red anodized screw accents — textured, moisture-resistant grip that maintains positive control in wet or cold conditions; distinctive detail without sacrificing function
- Construction/Carry System: Full-tang fixed blade with lanyard hole; includes Kydex sheath with belt loops — modern retention and carry versatility suited to both EDC and outdoor deployment
- Specs: 8.13 oz overall weight · 9.57" overall length · 0.16" blade thickness.
- Made in Spain by Muela
