Muela Rhino-9M Tactical Hunter – 3.54″ Sandvik 14C28N Stainless Steel Satin Drop Point Plain Edge Blade, Full-Tang Black Micarta Handle – 02MU093

Since 1952, the Muela family has been making hunting knives in Spain the same way — by hand, in-house, without shortcuts. The Rhino-9M is a direct expression of that tradition: a compact, full-tang fixed blade that strips everything down to what actually matters in the field and executes it with European precision.

The blade is ground from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel — a high-performance Swedish alloy developed specifically for cutlery and hunting blades. At 57–60 HRC, 14C28N achieves a refined balance of edge retention and toughness that makes it one of the most capable steels at this class. Excellent corrosion resistance means the blade handles blood, moisture, and humidity without the maintenance demands of carbon or tool steels. The flat grind opens the blade geometry fully, making the Rhino-9M a capable slicer across the full 3.54″ drop point length, while the 0.16″ blade thickness provides enough rigidity for controlled tip work without feeling blocky.

Key features:

• Blade Steel: Sandvik 14C28N stainless, 57–60 HRC — Swedish alloy engineered for cutlery; excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance
• Blade: 3.54″ drop point, flat grind, satin finish, plain edge, 0.16″ thick — balanced geometry for slicing, skinning, and controlled tip work
• Construction: Full tang, one-piece forged — maximum structural integrity for demanding field and hunting tasks
• Handle: Ergonomic black Micarta scales — secure grip in wet, cold, or bloody conditions; lanyard hole at butt end
• Sheath: Premium black leather, snap closure, embossed Muela logo, red decorative stitching, belt carry — handmade in Spain
• Dimensions: 7.87″ OAL, 6.49 oz — compact and field-capable, heavier than ultralight but balanced for sustained use

• Series: Part of the Rhino series — available in multiple blade lengths and handle materials for different user preferences
