NKD is a Finnish knife company well known for producing high quality blade blanks and finished knives.
The NKD Hudson 125 is a classic camping and chopping knife. The NKD take on this model in 1095 steel is a little slimmer than the original Hudson Bay knife, which allows for improved wood working and field cocking tasks.

Blade Thickness- 4mm / 0.157"
Overall Length- 240mm / 9.5"
Grind- 23 degree scandi
Finish- The Hudson blade has gone through a cold blacking finish process, giving it an appealing black, smooth satin finish, and an improving corrosion resistance.
Tang hole diameters- 4.7mm(0.185") these will fit our 1/4" Corby Bolts perfectly as well as the slotted NKD stainless handle fasteners.
Steel Type- 1095. This steel is well-regarded for its high carbon content, which gives it a hardness that contributes to outstanding edge retention. This means that knives made from 1095 steel can maintain a sharp edge for an extended period between sharpenings.
Condition- These blades are ground, heat treated, sharpened and etched with the NKD logo. Hardened to 58-59 HRC.
History- The Hudson Bay Camp knife was the first knife in history to actually be called a "camp knife". The knife dates back to the pre-colonial days of the 1700s. The Hudson Bay Trading Company was the dominant import-export company of early North America. The colonials, frontiersmen and trappers began to ask the trading company for a large knife to be used around base camp for general camp use.
Sheath sold separately.
