The whole knife is 5.63\" long, which makes the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B a true small fixed blade knife that carries as easily as a pocket knife while giving you the strength of a full-tang fixed blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat steel is used in the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B uses DC53 tool steel with a black titanium coating. DC53 is a Japanese cold-work tool steel designed as a tougher alternative to D2, so the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B holds a keen edge and shrugs off hard use despite its small size. The titanium coating protects the non-stainless steel from corrosion; keep the edge lightly oiled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs DC53 a good knife steel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — DC53 is a good knife steel for a small hard-use blade like the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B. Compared with D2 it offers better toughness and easier sharpening at a similar hardness, which is why HX Outdoors uses it across the Rock Apex line, including the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat handle material does the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B features a black G10 handle, 3.43\" long, machined with a fine non-slip texture over a one-piece full tang. G10 is a fiberglass laminate that is lightweight, strong, and grippy when wet, and the stainless steel pommel on the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B adds balance and serves as an impact tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B come with a sheath?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B comes with a Kydex sheath finished in a carbon fiber pattern with a belt clip, allowing secure, low-profile carry. The sheath keeps the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B ready for quick access on a belt, in a pack, or in a pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B be carried as a neck knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — HX Outdoors designed the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B to be carried in a pocket, in a backpack, or worn as a neck knife. At 5.63\" overall and 6.95 oz with its Kydex sheath, the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B is small and light enough for neck carry when paired with a cord or chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HX Outdoors Rock Apex Mini TD-26B is available at Going Gear, an authorized HX Outdoors dealer.
