Kershaw Camp 5 Fixed Blade Knife 4-3/4" Clip Point

The Kershaw Camp 5: Built for the Backcountry

The Camp 5 is a serious fixed-blade knife designed for those who demand reliability in the field. This full-tang Bowie-style blade is purpose-built for survival camping, bushcraft, and general outdoor work where a dependable cutting tool is non-negotiable.

Blade Performance

The 4.75-inch clip point blade is forged from D2 tool steel, a high-carbon, high-chromium alloy that strikes an excellent balance between edge retention and corrosion resistance. D2 holds an edge well under hard use while resisting rust better than many traditional high-carbon steels—a practical advantage in wet field conditions.

The stonewashed finish provides both aesthetic appeal and functional benefits, helping to conceal minor scratches and wear that come with real-world use.

Handle and Carry

The handle is constructed from glass-filled nylon scales with a machined texture that ensures a secure, non-slip grip even when your hands are wet or gloved. At 0.69 inches thick, the handle provides substantial material for control without excessive bulk.

The molded sheath is where Kershaw's engineering shines. A dual-retention system keeps the knife secure whether worn right-side up or inverted, while a convenient tab release lets you draw the blade quickly when seconds count. A water drainage hole in the sheath bottom prevents moisture buildup during extended field use.
