Overview

The Vehement Hitchhiker draws inspiration from classic combat and mid-century knives. Taking the best design cues from the classics, Vehement has created a robust knife that is both unique and familiar at the same time.

Vehement set out to create an EDC sized knife that was simple in construction, but nuanced in design. After several iterations they decided on a universally comfortable handle shape, with an emphasis on keeping the handle slim, but ergonomic. Timeless handle construction immediately reassures the user that the tool is up to task. A nickel silver guard, stacked leather handle and aluminum pommel exude pride of craftsmanship. The curvaceous silhouette adds style, with the only two straight lines on the whole knife being at the first half of the blade's edge and the guard face. 

Function always gets priority with form coming in a close second. Deep hollow grinds and a .156" spine thickness provides a keen cutting edge that maintains the knife's geometry through years of resharpening with plenty of backbone to handle the unexpected camping trip and heavier chores. Vehement has a proprietary heat treatment that gets extreme performance out of CPM154, leaving the end user with an easy to maintain and tough blade. Properly heat treated CPM 154 has a proven pedigree as a corrosion resistant workhorse with great edge holding. 

If you are hitting the road, destination unknown, and need a reliable companion for whatever the journey throws your way, the Hitchhiker ticks all the boxes and will bring a smile to your face while sitting around the fire pit.

Finer details include Vehement and TAD logos laser applied at the blades base. Keeping with the classic feel, the Hitchhiker comes with a custom sheath made by Skinbender Leather works.

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