PUSH BUTTON BLADE CHANGE

The Razor APX is built on our trusted RazorSafe system, giving the user the ability to always have a razor-sharp edge. When you notice the knife dulling, push the blade release button, removing the old blade and inserting a new blade into the blade holder until you hear an audible click, which is the balde seating into the locking mechanism. Blade changes are safe, easy and reliable. Never sharpen your knife again.

Slick Skeleton to Stout Blade

It’s up to you and your needs of the day. Traveling lite or prepared for anything? The APX offers real choices. Even when fully loaded with five scary-sharp razors securely nestled in a super grippy handle and locked receiver…you’re still traveling light!! And your APX can still readily convert to any task at hand by accepting the gut hook or bone saw options available. Slick design but not slick in your working hand thanks to the grippy silicone handle, how could anyone not just love this wilderness companion? I’m all in!

Hi there! Thank you so much for your amazing review of our 3.0' Razor APX. We are thrilled to hear that you are loving the versatility and functionality of the knife, especially with the added gut hook and bone saw options. We appreciate your support and look forward to being your trusty wilderness companion for many adventures to come. Happy hunting!

Love everything about this knife! I know they are trying to make as light as possible, but it would have been nice if it came with a kydex sheath to belt carry. Hopefully in the future. I just keep in my pack for now.

No sheath to carry it.

There's no sheath to carry the knife in, and the blade cover won't fit over the saw blade. I don't know what I'm going to do with this knife, but there's no way I can carry it anywhere. Maybe I'll stick it in my car's glove box. It's completely useless as an EDC knife, and I can't even put it on my belt when I'm hunting. It was a complete waste of money.

A Real Wiinning Design

I've been using the folding version of the razor knife for a couple of years now. I love how good they work and how easy blade changes are. But, sometimes a folder can be inconvenient to deploy and cleanup after use can be a chore as with all folders. So when you came out with the fixed blade version I was thrilled. All the benefits of the original razor knife with easier cleanup and deployment. Also the onboard blade storage and the ability to lighten the weight are awesome features.

Shot a very large cow

Shot a very large cow about 1.5 miles from a road. I couldn't carry meat and bone out, so I used your knife to debone the elk in less than 3 hours. Had to use several of the replacement blades as they got dull . The knife was amazing. Small enough for me to control, strong enough to cut what needed to be cut, and durable for the entire animal. Well done!

Quality as expected

When I first saw this, I wanted one immediately. It is Outdoor Edge quality through and through. Met all of my expectations. I will agree with a previous review that the only thing that is lacking is a full length sheath with a clip or belt loop/clip. That is not going to lower my rating or review. But with a sheath, it would put this product over the top. If you are thinking about getting this knife, don’t hesitate. Hunting season is upon us.

Nice

Perfect! Everything self contained. Can’t wait to put it to the test this fall during deer season. Never a dull knife!
