Leucadia Blade Co LandShark: 3.5" Blue PVD MagnaCut Fixed Blade, 80s CamoCarbon
The Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD is a small fixed blade that Leucadia Blade Co designed and Pro-Tech Knives builds in the USA. It has a 3.5" blue PVD CPM MagnaCut drop point blade, an 80s CamoCarbon handle, and a deep finger choil right behind the edge. It's 8" overall and weighs about 4 oz, so it carries more like a big folder than a camp knife.
The 80s CamoCarbon handle and blue PVD blade make this one of the most colorful LandSharks. Because every sheet of CamoCarbon is different, the pattern on your knife won't match the photos exactly.
Leucadia is a family business out of Encinitas, California, best known for fillet and kitchen knives. The LandShark is their take on an everyday fixed blade: thin enough to slice well, with a .125" spine that can still handle camp chores, breaking down boxes, or cleaning a few fish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the blade length of the Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD?
The Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD has a 3.5" blade and is 8" long overall. The spine is .125" thick, which is on the thin side for a fixed blade and helps it slice cleanly.
What steel is used in the Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD?
The Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD uses CPM MagnaCut, hardened to 63–64 HRC. MagnaCut was designed by metallurgist Larrin Thomas to be tough, hold an edge well, and resist rust better than most knife steels, and Leucadia heat treats it using the protocol he developed. PVD is a thin, hard coating applied in a vacuum chamber. Here it gives the blade a blue color and adds some scratch and corrosion resistance on top of the steel.
What handle material does the Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD have?
The Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD has an 80s CamoCarbon handle. Leucadia shapes it to lock into your hand when it's wet or cold, and the finger choil gives you a safe place to choke up for detail work.
What is CamoCarbon?
CamoCarbon is a very high quality, USA-made camouflage-pattern material produced from aerospace-grade carbon fiber. It's made under high heat and vacuum pressure, resulting in a tough, strong fabrication material — and every sheet's pattern is unique, so no two knives share the same camo carbon fiber pattern. The 80s CamoCarbon handle on the Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD is genuine CamoCarbon.

For most people, yes. The Leucadia Blade Co LandShark 80s CamoCarbon Blue PVD is short and light enough to carry every day, and MagnaCut at 63–64 HRC holds an edge a long time.
