Professional workmanship makes the SKIPPER from Eickhorn a robust sailing knife with high safety standards. The knife systematically combines three key sailors tools: a 4 mm thick, half-serrated main blade and a marlin spike with integrated shackle opener. Two brilliant blue, CNC-machined half-shells make up the handle, which features day-glow inserts on both sides, making the knife easy to find in the dark. A lanyard can be attached through the opening at the bottom of the handle. 1.5 mm plates are deployed to provide extra stability to the knife blade and marlin spike/shackle. The innovative unlocking button allows the main blade to be released using only one hand.
