Work Tuff Gear V44C Gen 3 – Böhler K329 Marine Raider Bowie Knife

Marine Raider DNA. Compact EDC Format.

The Work Tuff Gear V44C Gen 3 traces its lineage directly to the Marine Raider bowies of WWII — the V44 blades famously carried by Lt. Colonel Carlson's 2nd Raider Battalion into the jungles of the South Pacific. The V44C distills that heritage into a compact, everyday-carry platform: same aggressive clip-point bowie attitude, tighter footprint, and a wide fuller nodding to the original's double fuller profile.

Ground from Böhler K329 tool steel with a saber grind and convex edge, the V44C handles bushcraft, camp chores, and daily utility without fuss. Compact. Purpose-driven. No fluff. Semper Fi.
