Work Tuff Gear Ninjuko Gen 2 Fixed Blade Knife, AEB-L Satin, Micarta Natural, Camo Carbon Sheath

SPECIFICATIONS

The Ninjuku Gen 2, designed by Joe Flowers, was originally introduced to us in 2023. Drawing from Joe’s extensive bushcraft experience, the concept was to create a modern puukko-style knife that transitions seamlessly into an everyday carry platform—practical, efficient, and built for real-world use.

For the Gen 2, several key upgrades have been implemented to enhance performance and usability:

• Steel Upgrade – Transitioned from N690 to AEB-L, now with cryogenic treatment for improved edge stability, toughness, and overall performance.
• Blade Geometry – A slightly thicker blade stock has been adopted to increase structural strength without compromising cutting efficiency.
• Sharpening Choil – Added for easier maintenance and more precise edge control.
• Handle Design – Enlarged scales with a subtle integrated finger guard provide improved ergonomics and a more secure grip.
• Construction – Full tang design with a machined weight-reduction pocket, balancing durability with carry comfort.
• Sheath System – Upgraded to a camo-pattern carbon fiber Kydex sheath for enhanced durability and a refined aesthetic.

The Ninjuku Gen 2 reflects a thoughtful evolution—retaining the simplicity of a traditional puukko while integrating modern materials and design refinements for today’s demands.
