The Secare and SecareX have evolved over time with a few differing tried and tested versions paving the way to what are now the two benchmark, archetypal models.

5mm stock SF100 blade steel for both with blade lengths of 100mm and 200mm respectively make them the ultimate, outdoor general utility knives. 

Options of liner and scale colour are now offered, those liners and scales will generally be Micarta or G10 and they will generally be secured by adhesive and flared stainless steel tubes. 

Both knives are made in very limited numbers, for the Secare prices start at £475, the SecareX, £625. 

#PROTO

A prototype Secare produced for a UK police firearms unit, the modification from standard being the addition of a glass breaker to the butt of the handle.

Built in a muted, grey and black colourway.

The sheath of this one also a point of interest, a built in leather strap system allows the fitting or removal of a Maxpedition storage pouch.
