A fast, powerful fixed blade inspired by the legendary giant of Greek mythology.

Named after Damysus—the fastest of the giants in Greek lore—this KA‑BAR creation channels that mythic speed and strength into a formidable combat and utility knife. Built in Olean, NY, the Damysus features a 5.5" drop‑point blade crafted from 1095 Cro‑Van steel, known for its toughness, edge stability, and field‑ready performance. A durable black powder coat protects the blade from corrosion and glare.

The CE Canvas Micarta handle (available in black or green) provides exceptional grip in all conditions, while the injection‑molded sheath includes an active‑retention thumb lever for secure carry and rapid deployment. Designed by Iovito, the Damysus is a rugged, purpose‑built tool ready for demanding environments.
