The "Wander Tactical Uro SAW" model is an extremely robust knife, specifically designed for bushcraft and perfect for outdoor excursions. This knife is handcrafted, a detail that emphasizes its uniqueness and quality.

The blade, made in Italy, is forged in D2 steel, known for its excellent resistance and hardness, reaching a degree of 59/60 HRC. This ensures remarkable durability and long-lasting sharpness, ideal for use in extreme conditions. The "Marble" treatment on the blade not only gives it an aesthetically appealing look but also increases its resistance to corrosion and wear.

The handle is made of Micarta, a composite material known for its sturdiness and resistance to atmospheric agents, ensuring a comfortable and secure grip in any condition.

Review by Alessandra De Santi

From collector to author of reviews, to designers: the step was short for Claudio Colombo who, in a short time, decided to put his passion and experience to use by designing his own knife, the Kobura.
Inspired by the kiridashi, the Kobura (cobra in Japanese) revisits the essential lines of what was originally a typical Japanese instrument used to carve wood, but also a small daily utility knife used (especially by children) to tip pencils , cut paper, ropes, etc.

The Kobura, an EDC with an aggressive and appealing appearance, is made of D2 steel hardened to 59-61 HRC; the knife is equipped with a short chisel blade (61 mm) and extremely robust (thickness 5.5 mm). On the back there is a practical anti-slip knurling for the thumb. On the side without bevel is the Valknut, a Norse symbol used as the logo of TheFence.

TheFence is a team of shooting instructors with different specialties and experiences. Claudio attended courses with Rob Pincus (of which he is one of the two instructors in Italy), Gabriel Suarez and Scott Reitz (formerly L.A. Swat and instructor); one of the partners is an Active Shooters Response instructor, and another one has deepened Israeli techniques.
