NARROWBACK - OLIVE

Built for the Inside Job. *The Narrowback handle is NOT dielectric. Follow proper safety procedures when using this knife. The Narrowback is an electrician’s knife. Its compact three-inch hawkbill is built to skin residential wiring, then conquer the utility work that fills the rest of the day, like cutting boxes, zip ties, and plastic. Our founder and CEO Josh Smith spent 10 years as a lineman before founding MKC, and that decade on the poles inspired the Great Falls Skinner. The Narrowback carries the story indoors to the electricians pulling wire through conduit and crawling through rafters to reach the work. The name “Narrowback” is old job site slang. Linemen develop broad backs climbing poles and handling heavy cable, and the guys working inside got tagged as “narrow backs.” What started as a jab between trades has become a term of endearment, and those inside guys have earned a knife of their own.
