Small yet compact, the Ranger Cub is an excellent EDC knife

We finally got our hands on some Orange Handles. This one has an orange handle and Orange Kydex Sheath. GREAT COMBO

Peltonen Knives is especially known for the Ranger puukko, favored by conscripts and wilderness enthusiasts. The M23 Ranger Cub, a smaller but more compact and agile addition to the product line, is the latest arrival. While previous Ranger models are often seen as survival knives, the M23 is handy for more precise tasks such as carving, whittling, and various everyday activities and challenges encountered by hikers or fishermen in the wilderness.

The Ranger Cub M23 knife features a 6.5-centimeter carbon steel blade, with its edge induction-hardened to 62 HRC. Remember that carbon steel always requires some care. Therefore, keep the blade clean and wash and dry it after each use. Occasionally, a little oil can also be applied to the blade. With proper care, corrosion is kept at bay and the blade remains untarnished.

The handle material is TPV, thermoplastic vulcanizate, a type of rubber-like plastic material that withstands wear, impacts, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations almost indefinitely. The secure grip remains firm even in wet conditions.

With the Kydex sheath, the knife can be easily carried as a neck knife or horizontally on the belt.

Peltonen Knives M23 Ranger Cub is a knife that is much larger than its size suggests. It is an excellent EDC (Everyday Carry) knife for all kinds of outdoor hobbies and general tasks where you need a proper and, above all, safe knife.

Perfect EDC blade.

This knife is the perfect size, and the sheath is perfectly configured for carrying horizontal to the waistline. It's the perfect compliment to a pistol carried AIWB. Blade steel is outstanding, and comes very ♯ right out of the box. I couldn't be happier.

Ranger Cub is fantastic

I go through a bunch of knives every year for reviews and testing. This is a borderline perfect PSK size knife. I was able to hold one of these at bladeshow 2024 and fell in love, I've since got 2 in orange, one as a back up blade in my primary kit, and the other has been kitted out to use as a PSK. Great service and customer support from Ragweed as always. Buy 2

A jewel!

This little knife is a real joy to use. It is very handy, easy to attach to your belt, horizontally, or to hang around the neck. Easy one hand extraction when needed. The handle is sweet, feels great in the hand, is grippy even when wet, and is long enough for a 4 fingered grip. The blade came very sharp. The extra high hardened edge is exceptional. This little knife is very useful. Worth every penny and then some. Definitely a keeper!
