The Lineman was made with stripping big wire in mind. Comprised of a backwards facing curve and a semi guarded handle that is spacious and stable. The curved hollow ground edge excels in fine cutting with increased durability for a long lasting sharpness. An extra half inch of handle allows for use with light work gloves while still being compact enough to carry comfortably. The knife feels useable and safe when working making it look and feel like the right tool for the job. The Lineman is offered in a variety of steel, handle materials/colors, and finishes.
