Overview

*** This one of a kind Baasan features a Timascus blade, offering a striking contrast to the blackened bamboo handle. ***

Crafted for effortless daily carry and less permissive environments, the Mummert Knives Basan is a remarkably lightweight, corrosion-resistant fixed blade. Renowned for its nearly weightless profile—tipping the scales at approximately 0.35 ounces!—it pairs advanced metallurgy with distinctive, high-grade aesthetics. The Basan is a light duty knife for day to day cutting tasks and its beautiful overall construction lets it pass by in all but the most restrictive of environments. This Elite TAD  Edition has our logo on the striking Timascus blade featuring a carbidized edge for enhanced durability and cutting power. The handle is constructed from fire-hardened bamboo, sourced locally and impregnated with beeswax to withstand the elements.The end cap is crafted from Timascus, bearing the maker's mark. Completing this minimalist system is a beautiful custom ray skin sheath equipped with Mummert’s signature STG black topo Ti clip.

Lightweight and slender, the Bassan TAD Edition  Timascus and carbide construction requires minimal maintenance. The Basan’s thoughtful and detailed construction not only make for an effortless carry, but a knife to admire when the job is done.

Due to the nature of custom items, slight variations may occur.
