Havalon has released the new Havalon Baracuta-Blaze for hunters that believe bigger is better. With the same lightweight replaceable blade concept featured in their popular Piranta knives—but with bigger, 4-3/8 inch blades—the Baracuta-Blaze also features an easy-to-find orange ABS handle, black rubber grip inserts, an open back for easy cleaning, ambidextrous thumb studs, liner lock and a removable pocket clip.

The Baracuta-Blaze blades and handle are interchangeable with Havalon's current line of Baracuta fillet knives—providing outdoor enthusiasts with two blade options to fit their Baracuta knives: skinning and fillet blades. For the value conscious, the #115XT blades are thick enough to be re-sharpened if desired.

The new knife is constructed with Japanese stainless steel, has an overall length of 10-3/8 inches, weighs 3 ounces and comes with 5 replacement blades.

Havalon Knives began in 2005 with the release of the Piranta series of skinning knives with Quik-Change blades. Havalon's replaceable blades eliminate the need to carry heavy skinning knives, sharpeners and whetstones into the field.
