Very Good Knife Co. Hawk - Gabriel Rimmer Collaboration
The Hawk represents Gabriel Rimmer's second collaboration with VGKC—a more EDC-suited design from the respected Last Huntsman Outdoors reviewer whose lifetime of collecting, carrying, and using knives has earned him revered status within the knife community. This fixed blade features a 3.5-inch AEB-L blade at 0.156 inches thick with a full flat grind delivering responsive cutting performance for everyday carry users, outdoor enthusiasts, and field professionals who value honest design over trends. At 7.7 inches overall and 5.5 ounces, the Hawk proves light enough for genuine all-day carry while remaining substantial enough to handle camp tasks, field work, and everyday cutting needs without compromise.
The full flat grind creates a versatile cutting platform that excels across diverse tasks while the blade thickness maintains rigidity for serious work. The spacious 4.2-inch Micarta handle accommodates varying hand sizes comfortably, with consistent proportions maintaining control during extended use. Gabriel's design philosophy reflects decades of fair and honest knife testing—every detail serves genuine function rather than aesthetic trends. This is a blade built by someone who actually carries and uses knives seriously, translated into a practical EDC tool that performs exactly as intended. The respect Gabriel has earned comes from understanding what actually works in the field, and the Hawk reflects that hard-won knowledge.
