Standing true to our tradition, APOC brings you a tool that is truly undefinable. The Demko Hybrid represents the ideal of our mission to produce multi-use tools for our users. Is it a machete? Is it a knife? Is it a meat cleaver? Is it an axe? Yes, and yes and yes.
Designed by Andrew Demko and made from D2 steel with a durable titanium coating, the 5.5mm thick blade cuts, hacks, batons, feathers and whatever you throw it’s way. With enough heft to handle the big jobs but light and comfortable enough to not fatigue users during use, the Demko Hybrid will be your go-to blade for those extraordinary situations. The extra hefty pick at the top of the blade provides more chopping power to your swing. Flat on the top, the pick is brought to a sharp point, perfect for embedding and carrying processed wood.
In true APOC style, the G10 handle slabs are rounded into the full tang handle construction. A lanyard hole is available for those who want a more secure grip, along with rounded knurling on the spine. The Kydex double snap belt sheath allows for secure carry and ease of release.
A master knife maker and designer, Andrew Demko began his career forging chisels at just 12 years old. His passion for bladesmithing quickly evolved, and he soon began designing knives from his garage. Andrew’s engineering expertise and innovative designs caught the attention of Cold Steel, where he created iconic models and developed groundbreaking locking mechanisms like the Tri-Ad Lock and Shark-Lock. Now collaborating with CAS, Andrew brings his dedication to quality and craftsmanship to a new generation of products.
