Jank Shank W Description
The recently updated Toor Knives Jank Shank W is a compact, yet aggressive EDC fixed blade. The no-nonsense 3-inch wharncliffe blade has a point that is designed for piercing tasks pairs well with the straight razor-style edge. While fine point knives can be prone to damage the choice of tough M4 tool steel ensures durability and provides good edge retention.

The handle is designed for maximum retention during use thanks to the grippy G10 handle scales and the ring at the end of the handle. This design makes the Jank Shank ideal as an offhand knife, especially in trained hands for primary weapon retention.
The Kydex sheath does not come with any mounting clips, however Toor offers 5 different add-on mounting options. These allow the end user to decide if they want to mount the Jank Shank to a plate carrier or Belt, carry it in their pocket, or carry it discretely IWB.
While the Jank Shank’s design if clearly tactical, it can serve admirably in everyday cutting tasks. This combined with a variety of carry and mounting options makes the Jank Shank a versatile, compact, and discrete option for everyday utility and self-defense or a great last ditch knife for first responders.
