The Peltonen Knives M23 Ranger Cub is a compact, high-performance Finnish puukko-style fixed blade knife, perfectly suited for bushcraft, carving, whittling, camping, hiking, EDC, and outdoor tasks where a smaller yet capable tool shines. Often called the "little sister" to the full-sized Ranger series, it delivers surprising cutting power and control in a lightweight, pocket-friendly package handcrafted in Finland with premium materials and thoughtful design.
Specifications:
Blade Length: 65 mm (2.56–2.63 inches, depending on exact measurement rounding)
Blade Thickness: 3.3 mm (0.13 inches)
Blade Material: 80CrV2 high-carbon steel (tough, wear-resistant, and excellent for edge holding)
Blade Style: Drop point with classic Scandinavian (Scandi) grind and micro bevel (~20° edge angle) for superior slicing, feathersticking, and precision carving
Blade Hardness: Induction-hardened cutting edge to 62 HRC (spine ~59 HRC for added toughness and flexibility)
Blade Finish: Natural / satin / two-tone (uncoated, highlighting the steel's character and grind lines; requires basic oiling to prevent rust on carbon steel)
Overall Length: 165 mm (6.5 inches)
Handle Length: ~100 mm (3.90–3.94 inches)
Handle Material: Black TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) – grippy, impact-resistant, lightweight, and comfortable in wet, cold, or gloved conditions
Weight: Approximately 78–80 g (2.75–2.82 oz) – remarkably light for its capability
Sheath: Rugged black Kydex with secure, quiet retention and Pull-the-DOT® snap for easy belt attachment/removal; durable against impacts and temperature extremes
Other Features: Full tang construction (reinforced hidden tang to lanyard hole), plain edge, ambidextrous usability
Country of Origin: Finland
Intended Uses: Carving, whittling, food prep, fire prep, light chopping/batoning, everyday carry, and as a reliable backup blade
The M23 Ranger Cub combines traditional Finnish puukko ergonomics with modern steel and sheath technology, making it feel much larger and more capable than its compact size suggests. Ideal for scouts, hunters, bushcrafters, and anyone seeking a no-nonsense, high-quality small fixed blade that excels at detailed work while handling tougher outdoor demands. Maintenance tip: Keep the uncoated carbon blade lightly oiled to protect against corrosion.
