MercWorks - Orion
With a reputation built on inventiveness, discretion and extreme dependability, Mercworx has etched out a rock solid niche in an utterly uncompromising and unforgiving market. Because confidentiality is as important as competence to Mercworx success, they have up until now shunned the public marketplace. Recently however, they have received permission from one of our primary customers to release a number of our knife designs to the public.
Each of these specialty knives are made by one artisan from beginning to end. We recommend that you check with your local state regulations regarding the use, size restrictions and carrying of blades.
Like all great hunters, the Orion is rugged, functional and built for the long haul. Handground from high grade .229" thick 154CM stainless steel, the Orion is the epitome of a compact workhorse, while retaining the graceful, classic lines that are rapidly becoming a Mercworx hallmark. With an overall length of 7 1/2 " and a blade length of 3 3/4" the Orion is the most compact of all Mercworx fixed blades, lending itself to unobtrusive carry for those who require uncompromising strength and quality in a carry size that leaves a minimal footprint.
Since its introduction, the Orion has already engendered a large following among both undercover operatives, and hunters and fishermen. In order to broaden its degree of versatility, Mercworx provides the Orion with a non-sharpened top false edge, so the outdoorsman can extent his index finger over the top of the blade for greater control while doing fine, delicate work such as skinning or caping. The Orion has proven to be immensely successful in fulfilling its duties as a compact undercover and outdoorsman's knife, ensuring it a well-carved niche in the classic mercworx lineup.
