Argali
Carbon Knife
Ultralight and ultra-sharp, the Carbon Knife from Argali is a "one knife" solution for backcountry hunters that want to be able to cut up an entire elk or deer without needing to sharpen their knife. Crafted in the USA from super-premium S35VN stainless steel for superior edge retention, the Carbon Knife is also made with textured G10 removable handles, which gives the knife the feel of full handled blade at the weight of a skeletonized knife, weighing in at a meager 1.8 ounces.
Why S35VN Steel-In order to make a knife that would hold an edge to cut an entire elk without needing to be sharpened, we wanted the best steel on the market. We wanted a steel that could hold an edge, but wasn't so hard that you couldn't field hone it if you needed to. With its' high Chromium and Vanadium content, as well as the structural alignment of the steel that occurs during the heat treatment, S35VN is simply the best steel on the market for hunting knives with its' unmatched durability, hardness, edge retention and corrosion resistance.

Great service and response to a well made knife.
I got this knife when it first came out in 2019. I am about to buy the sawtooth and realized I should probably write a long-term use review for the Carbon. Right out of the box I was immediately blown away by the ergonomics of this knife! I have a TON of knives and try to stay on the lighter side, always trying to find the perfect blend of lightweight but functional/ergonomics and the carbon knife IS JUST THAT. Perfect jimping in all the right areas, perfect blade thickness and steel choice for an all around perfect knife. There is so much attention to detail, including the G10 scales you don't see in some of these other lightweight knives, which makes a big difference when you are using the knife for it's intended purpose. Don't get sucked in by the marketing of some of these other companies that emphasize lightweight hunting knives, the Argali team has done it right! It has proven itself throughout the years processing countless animals and game. What I didn't realize is that it would soon replace all my EDC knives and I carry this daily for everything from the kitchen to becoming a box opening ninja. JUST BUY IT AND DON'T LOOK BACK!
I shot a small 5x4 elk last year, 5.5 miles back in the wilderness. Skinned and deboned the entire elk by my self without touching up the blade once. Light weight and dependable! Good thing too, because it was the only knife I hade with me. I can’t say enough good things about this knife. If you live in the backcountry in the fall, it needs to be in your pack!
Couldn’t have been more happy with this knife. Was able to cut a whole mule deer buck up and it still held its sharpness. Argali constantly keeps putting out great products.
I purchased this knife a few years ago, and it has performed better than expected. I processed at least two deer and tons of waterfowl with it before needing to be resharpened. Last month I decided to take advantage of the free sharpening service and sent the knife in. The process was very simple and got a return confirmation within a couple days saying the knife was on its way back. Very quick turn around time! Unfortunately, when checking the mail, the post office sent me a claim letter instead with pieces of the return packaging including a hand written post note saying the knife was now sharp and wishing me good luck on the season. The letter stated that the package was found opened and the contents gone. I am pretty sure the knife was stolen. Needless to say I was beyond frustrated. Even though I knew it wasn’t their fault, I decided to call Argali just to make sure some sort of mistake didn’t happen on their end such as sealing the package and forgetting to put the knife in it (I know I’ve made mistakes like that when busy and trying to rush). I spoke with Marshal and he confirmed that no such mistake was made and asked me which knife it was and would see if there was anything they could do for me. I went forward with filing the claim at the post office, and not two hours later I got a. Unexpected text from Marshal stating that they are sending me a new knife and apologizing for the occurrence. I was blown away! The misplaced knife was in no way their fault, but they still took care of me anyway. Talk about amazing customer service! I have had nothing but great results from all of their products I’ve purchased, and now I can say they have the outstanding customer service to match. Thank you Argali for going above and beyond most. I will be a customer for life.
