The smallest Mamba. The one you actually carry every day.

Video: Instagram

Neil Warren designed the Mamba EDC to be the knife that stays on you. At approximately 2.8" of 80CrV2 on his narrow reverse tanto profile, it is compact enough to disappear on a belt or in a pocket but carries all the design DNA that makes the Mamba family worth paying attention to. The sabre grind with Power Swedge, the narrow cutting-focused blade geometry, and the rock textured G10 scales all carry over from the larger Mamba models. Neil spent two months carrying a prototype before he made another one. That kind of testing is what produces a blade this dialed in at this size.

Specifications

  • Blade Length: ~2.8"
  • Blade Steel: 80CrV2 Carbon Steel
  • Blade Grind: Sabre Grind with Power Swedge
  • Blade Style: Reverse Tanto
  • Handle Material: Rock Textured G10 (select color)
  • Sheath: USA-Made Kydex (Black)
  • Country of Origin: Made in USA (Lufkin, Texas)

Small Enough to Forget About. Useful Enough to Reach For.

  • Approximately 2.8" of cutting edge covers daily tasks, food prep, cordage, and field work
  • Narrow Mamba profile keeps the blade from feeling chunky at this size
  • Reverse tanto tip is reinforced and capable despite the compact dimensions

Neil carried a prototype for two months before making more. That is how a working knife gets designed.

Four Color Options

Blue, Black, Tan, and Green G10 scales, all with the same rock texture, all shipped with a black USA-made Kydex sheath.

80CrV2 Carbon Steel

  • Exceptional toughness for a blade at this size
  • Sharp working edge that holds up under real daily use
  • Easy to put a field edge back on with simple sharpening tools

A Note on 80CrV2 Carbon Steel

80CrV2 is a carbon steel, not stainless. It will develop a patina and will rust if neglected. Wipe the blade clean and dry after use and apply a light coat of oil when storing. The toughness and edge performance are the trade-off, and for most hard-use and field carry applications, it is well worth it.

Factual young adult read!
Format: Paperback
The book was as wonderful as could be expected considering the subject matter. The author clearly did her research. That was made apparent early own when she depicted African storytelling. It was fast pace and the writing style was simplistic. I later discovered this is consider a young adult read so that’s why the simplistic writing style and the lack of profanity. Yes, there were racial slurs and derogatory remarks, but nowhere near as heavy and hard hitting as other books I’ve read. I would consider it “clean” and the rape scenes were brief and not detailed. I will say I initially struggled with Polly’s introduction into the story. My mind immediately went to white savior and I was put off. Even after I realized that wasn’t the narrative the author was going for I still struggled to like her detailed presence and felt like the story should have been solely focused on Amari. However after I got about half way through the book the author skillfully made me forget all about that dislike with a surprising plot twist. From then on I had to read with my hand covering the adjacent page because my eyes would try to skip over and read what’s next. The end of their journey had started to feel a bit fairytalish but the author subtly rectified that with numerous clear facts. So that was appreciated. I feel like some authors try to say “well yeah they went through all these horrible things but they finally were free and lived happily ever after”… like no, not quite. In the afterword, Draper does separate fact from fiction and encourages the reader to do some deeper research of their own. She list numerous informative sites as well as books. I do feel like the simplistic writing style and the fast pace story took away from the emotional depth of the characters. Just to clarify, this is a work of fiction but the facts of the story are true.

Incredible story and amazing research ❤️
Format: Paperback
I read this book in middle school and never got a chance to finish reading it. I’m happy I was able to remember the name of the book and find out what happened to Amari. I loved how the Author put a lot of historical places and research into this book. I love how she added the indentured servant Polly. I never knew what an indentured servant was? This story was beautiful but I felt Polly, Amari and Tidbit had tremendous luck with getting to freedom. Seems like everyone was willing to help them which I found odd. I understand that the book is suppose to be Fiction but it didn’t seem realistic to only have Clay searching for them? I’m pretty sure back in those times runaways slaves/indentured servants were hunt down. I just wish the author would have made that part more realistic . I wish she would of added in the story slave hunters and people putting up rewards for them to be captured. It would of made me feel like I was transported back in time. Other than that this was an incredible story. Towards the end of the book is the best part. You can actually look up all the websites/research she used to create this book. I looked up most of those websites and was quite amazed. I’m a huge history buff so this was very exciting for me. 😍❤️😁

An 8th grade teacher reads to students yearly
Format: Kindle
Because she made a point to tell me this has been apart of her lessons and she's been teaching 20+ years I wanted to know why!? Very educational for everyone especially in today's time. Compassion is lacking for people no matter the color of your skin, if every race read this then there would be anger but if they look past that its we as people need more compassion for others.

Format: Kindle
So very well written with searing details that bring the horrors of slavery in America into stark relief. It also shows that American slaves were Humans that created and lived in a loving family and community with it's distinct culture, knowledge, and traditions. And it shows how a caring and respectful people with a tradition of warmly greeting strangers, even those that look very different from them, similar to Native Americans in North America, get savagely treated and killed by Europeans. This is one of those special instances when a "loser" gets to write history...the whole history.

A well-written and engaging book
Format: Hardcover
I read this book for a college course, actually. It is difficult to call it a "good" book because the content is pretty awful, but it is well written. There are many sad and stressful moments; the author is very good at pulling you into the emotions of what it would be like to live through the horrors of slavery. My mom read the book after me as well. Neither of us could put it down.
