## Overview

The Hultafors 380020 GK Heavy Duty Knife is a robust 8.7-inch fixed blade crafted from high-carbon Japanese steel hardened to 58-60 HRC.

Its ergonomic polypropylene handle and versatile holster, attachable to both belt and button, make it a reliable tool for professionals demanding power and convenience in tough environments.

## Description

A powerful and durable ground knife suitable for tough tasks such as prizing, breaking and hacking. It features a unique function for attaching the holster around a button on your work clothes so that it does not come loose whilst still being easy to remove. The blade is made from Japanese knife steel, 0,12 inch carbon steel that has been hardened to 58–60 HRC. The cutting edge has been sharpened with a double edge angle and a final honing on a leather strop. Both the handle and holster are made from super-durable PP plastic. The holster can be attached to both a belt and a button on your work clothes. If your belt is thick, cut away the small pin on the cover. Because the heavy duty knife is a more powerful tool, it has a larger holster than other knives in the craftsmen range. Gk-ph is supplied with a cardboard case instead of a holster.

Review: Built Like a Viking Axe in Knife Form – My Daily Beater That Refuses to Die - This Hultafors GK Heavy Duty Knife is my everyday carry, and it’s been through absolute chaos with me — and somehow still looks like it could cut through a truck tire without blinking. If knives had personalities, this one would wear flannel, grow its own beard, and chop wood for fun. The build quality is seriously impressive. It's got that classic "overbuilt Swedish tool" vibe — thick spine, solid tang, and zero wobble or cheap plastic nonsense. You hold it and immediately think, “Yep, this could survive the apocalypse.” As for feel, it fits in the hand like it was designed by someone who actually uses knives. The handle’s grippy without being sticky, chunky without being a brick. It feels comfortable in all weather — even when your hands are cold, wet, or covered in mystery goop. No weird hotspots, just a good solid grip that makes you want to go chop something. Size-wise, it’s just right — not so big it feels like a machete, not so small you feel like you’re cutting twine with a butter knife. It’s got just enough heft to make you feel like you're in charge, but still nimble enough for everyday tasks. Functionality? Off the charts. I’ve used it to baton wood, scrape, pry open stubborn crates, trim rope, and probably cut stuff it wasn’t technically designed to cut. Still sharp. Still solid. Still going strong. The holster even deserves a shout-out — clips to your belt or work pants like a loyal sidekick. It doesn’t fall off, doesn’t jab you in the side, and doesn’t act like it’s made out of brittle dollar-store plastic. All in all, if you’re looking for a no-nonsense knife that can take a daily beating, laugh it off, and ask for more — this is it. Forget babying it — this knife wants to work. Buy it, beat it up, and then recommend it to everyone you know, just like I did.
Review: Best knife under $20 - I bought this knife as a spare and to have another knife with a scandi grind. I have to say that I am impressed. It came sharp. Hair shaving no hair splitting sharp. The slight secondary bevel was polished making me think that it was stropped. The spine showed signs of the blade being pressed out from the steel. Since I will use this with a ferro rod around my forge and campfires, I took time to square it up a little more. It threw sparks without doing this but not very well. I took it out to the forge and grabbed a piece of oak limb and made a small one stick fire. I batoned it through the oak and then made some feather shavings. I lit them with a ferro rod using the spine of the knife. The blade is high carbon steel and has more belly at the tip than a mora which means it would make an okay blade for skinning. Maybe not as a primary but as a bakup to a skinning knife. With the way it holds an edge and it's all round usefullness I'll probably take it with me hunting since it is light to carry. It handled all tasks with ease and remained hair shaving sharp. I really like the plastic handle of the knife. It is the best plastic handle I've found on any knife. I find it easy to use in the forehand grip with no hot spots while carving and even doing some heavier cutting. It also feels good in the hand when doing chest lever cuts. The grip shape is comfortable and allows a good firm grip. I already want a couple more of these. Many have said they don't like the sheath attachment. I rather do. I found that I could use it on the buttons of my BDU style pants pocket buttons. I don't carry a knife there but it was handy while playing around in shop. Kind of a drop leg knife position. However, my intent was and is to use the knife with a neck carry. I just ran a piece of 550 cord through the handle and locked it down. Then I used a cord lock from a worn out jacked and I have easy adjustment and it breaks free with some effort so there's no worry of chocking myself if it gets caught. You can see that set up in the photo. For belt carry you need to cut the tab off the sheath that protrudes into the button hole as suggested in the directions. I haven't and don't intend to since this is a neck knife and the tab locks the 550 cord in place. After a couple days of use this knife is quickly becoming a favorite and I will likely buy a couple more to keep in the shop and with each of several kits I have. I think I'll put one on my electricians belt as a knife comes in handy for cutting romex sheathing. Then one in my car kit, bob etc... For an inexpensive knife it is hard to beat. For less than $15 it's easy to buy several. I like it better than moras so I'd say it's the best buy of knives under $20

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great cheap knife. Thicker and larger than a Mora at equal pricepoint.
*by B***T on April 12, 2015*

Great knife. Simply made, tough as nails and shaving sharp out of the package. Handle is beefier than my cheaper Moras. Blade is also more substantial. It does indeed have a secondary/microbevel (i.e. not a true scandi zero grind) but can easily be converted I would think. The grind is fairly even. The spine is unfinished and will need grinding/filing mods to strike a fire rod (easy enough). Sheath isn't bad once the inside fins on the belt loop are shaved off (did it easily in seconds with the knife) - better than my Moras', as the belt loop on mine even unclips and opens/unfolds. Retention is just fine and there's no rattle. Moras this thick and heavy are significantly more expensive. To easily convex the microbevel, simply put it on a belt sander/grinder or Worksharp. It will cut/carve wood significantly better. Just watch you dont overheat the edge and screw up the temper. Note: the price jumps around a lot! One moment it's $8, the next it's $17! I've always bought them for under $10 from Big Red Toolbox in the UK. 5 stars to the seller as they are great. It takes a while to receive it but they are very communicative. They come and go as a listed seller based on having the product in stock. Just found out after buying a few more they're made in Taiwan. Going back to Moras. This is not a ding on the knife, just that I am buying this type of product partially because it's origin is ideally Scandinavia and that's just personal preference.
