Wichard Fluorescent Offshore Knife with Marlinspike

The Wichard Fluorescent Offshore Knife with Marlinspike is a folding marine knife intended for sailing and rope-handling tasks. Its N680 stainless steel blade has a partially serrated cutting edge for working with modern sailing lines. The blade locks open and can be deployed with one hand. A fluorescent handle helps the tool stand out among deck equipment.

The PA and PU handle incorporates a soft-grip surface for working with the knife. Wichard specifies a corrosion-resistant treatment on the blade for marine use. This version also includes a shackle key for fittings up to 12 mm and a marlinspike-style tool. An adjustable wrist loop is supplied with the knife.

The blade is listed as 80 mm long and 2 mm thick. Wichard designs and manufactures this model in France. The handle material is rated by the manufacturer for temperatures from minus 60 to 100 degrees Celsius. Keep the cutting edge covered and follow normal onboard knife-handling precautions.
