The HT is a small tool for big jobs that also can be concealed. It is a favorite with the military as well as outdoors enthusiasts as it offers a ton of utility in a smaller fixed blade package. The spine serrations are prefect for tearing through tough materials. The thumb serrations allow you to "choke up" on the knife for more delicate tasks or to get more leverage

About Carpenter PD-1 Steel: It all started years ago with VascoWear manufactured by Teledyne Vasco which was an incredibly tough alloy. Crucible Steel then later came out with their version called Cru Wear (slightly different formula). With the advent of the powdered metal process, Crucible then applied this superior process and further tweaking the mix to create CPM 3V (which we all know and love). Fast forward to now and Carpenter Steel has gone back to the original VascoWear formula and updated it and applied their modern Micro-Melt powder metal process to it to create PD-1. Duane says PD-1 is supposed to be very comparable to the CPM 3V with the difference being the carbides. It is supposedly the same toughness and maybe a BIT better in wear resistance than 3V. Again, not a stainless, so corrosion resistance is also on par with 3V
