Every detail considered
Designed and Made Better.
With a full-bellied Crucible s35vn blade for great blend of edge retention, corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening, the Hell Gap is going to become your go-to adventure knife for years to come. The canvas micarta or G10 scales provide great grip and hand feel in all conditions. Designed to be precise enough to do fine work like carving, but with enough finger clearance for chopping or dicing, the Hell Gap is the TJB ATV; go anywhere, do anything.

- CSCraig S.Verified ReviewerRated 4 out of 5 stars3 months agoThe Hell Gap
This knife is very well designed and as with all James Brand products it is built to last.
Fits in hand great and looks great! Blade shape and grind allow for multiple tasks from cutting rope, making fire start, and food prep. I use this knife mainly for camping and hiking. The sheath needs to be redesigned. It's loose and does not fit the knife well. The sheath needs to snap on and off in such a way as to instill confidence in the user.
Also for the money the sheath should include a combo belt pocket clip.
I don't mind paying a premium price for a premium product and in this case the knife is on point and the sheath is not.
- DDiego_GVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoWow awesome
The Hell Gap doesn’t disappoint beautiful craftsmanship and quality fits perfect in my had.
- JPJoshua P.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars4 years agoNot worth the money with the useless sheath
It's a nice looking knife, really nice looking
Feels good in my hand
Nice ribbed section for your thumb to press on
Hole in the handle for a lanyard if you're into that sorta thing
The sheath sucks, it's just a 2 pieces of kydex sandwiched together with uneven rivets so you can't attach any sort of clip to it. Now after spending $275 on the knife I have to pay someone else to make a decent sheath so I can actually carry the knife.
I preordered a black on black version and waited months for mine to show up late while I saw the silver versions show up on the website and sell out. The only difference between mine and the silver ones is cerakote, they should've fulfilled the preorders before releasing them for general sale. Now I know not to bother preordering from them again.
- NBNick B.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars1 month agoNice knife but smaller than I thought
The knife is well made and looks good. Haven't had a chance yet to use it long term, but so far, it's holding its edge nicely. It will serve my purposes (general all-purpose camp knife), but it's smaller overall than I was envisioning. Perhaps I should have paid closer attention to the dimensions but its closer in style and size to a paring knife than what the photos would suggest.
The sheath is kinda' funny. It doesn't seem particularly secure, but will protect the blade (assuming it stays in place).
- JSJohn S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoGreat tool!
Expertly crafted, well-balanced, sharp as a razor (literally!) a sturdy blade I’m sure I will use ranching, camping, or in any emergency situation. I do wish JB offered a leather scabbard option.
