Bravo 5 – Fixed Blade Knife – 3.5" Clip Point – Acid Etched Black G10
The Stroup Knives Bravo 5 is a compact hard-use fixed blade built for everyday field carry, camp work, and general utility without dragging a giant slab of steel on your belt. This version pairs a 3.5-inch clip point blade with 1095 high carbon steel, an acid-etched black finish, black G10 handle scales, and an included sheath.
Stroup kept this one clean and practical. It is small enough to carry comfortably, but still built like it expects actual work instead of just posing for photos on somebody’s “EDC dump” page.
What it does
The Bravo 5 gives the buyer a compact fixed blade for everyday carry, outdoor utility, camp chores, and general cutting tasks where a sturdy full-tang knife makes more sense than a folder. The clip point profile keeps it versatile for slicing, detail work, and controlled tip use.
Why it’s worth it
This knife hits a smart middle ground: real fixed-blade toughness without becoming a brick on your hip. The 1095 carbon steel keeps it tough and easy to sharpen, the G10 scales give solid grip, and the included sheath makes it ready to carry without extra nonsense.

Install notes
1095 high carbon steel is tough and easy to maintain, but it is not stainless. Keep it clean, keep it dry, and do not act shocked when carbon steel wants a little respect.
Verify before you buy
Verify that you want the clip point Bravo 5 and not the Tanto version. Same family, different blade personality, and that matters.
