Za-Pas WZ.25 Grom Toxic Fixed Blade Knife - Olive

The Grom WZ.25 knife was designed by Militaria.pl in consultation with soldiers and outdoor enthusiasts, and its production was entrusted to the renowned Polish manufacturer Za-Pas. This is a durable tactical knife with a 15-centimeter blade featuring a Clip-Point profile and a Full Tang construction. The main advantage of the knife is its blade made of Swedish Sleipner steel, which has undergone professional heat treatment.

Profiled scales made from G10 laminate with distinctive Toxic texturing provide maximum control over the knife during dynamic and demanding work. The rough surface effectively eliminates the risk of slipping, ensuring a secure grip even in wet environments, mud, or when used with tactical gloves. Thanks to this, the knife remains stable and predictable in all terrain conditions. The set includes a sheath made from impact-resistant ABS material, allowing for belt carrying and multi-position mounting to gear.

Sleipner tool steel

The WZ.25 Grom model is made from a single piece of Sleipner tool steel, developed by the Swedish foundry Uddeholm. This steel combines above-average wear resistance with high resistance to cracking and chipping, which is a challenging yet highly desirable combination for a knife meant for heavy work and combat. Additionally, this steel is significantly less susceptible to corrosion than typical low-alloy tool steels. The name Sleipner comes from Norse mythology - it was the name of the magical eight-legged mount ridden by Odin, the god of war and warriors.

Geometry and hardening, flat grind, cross guard and jimping on the back

The blade with a Clip-Point profile and a length of 147 mm is hardened to a hardness of 59 +/-1 HRC and finished with a black, textured coating providing additional protection against corrosion. The edge is formed with a flat grind reaching halfway up the blade, which, combined with a spine thickness of 4.3 mm, ensures high durability while maintaining optimal cutting properties. The reinforced tip profile significantly reduces the risk of breaking. On the spine, at the thumb rest area, jimping (serrations) is placed to facilitate control over the blade during cutting. The minimal, one-sided cross guard does not interfere during work, yet along with the finger choil, sufficiently secures the hand even during powerful thrusts.

Handle scales made of G10 laminate, Toxic texturing, lanyard hole

The handle comprises scales with an ergonomic profile, attached to the tang, made from durable G10 glass-epoxy laminate in green color. The distinctive Toxic texture with an irregular, distinctly rough pattern provides an exceptionally secure grip and a high level of control over the knife even during intense work in challenging conditions. At the end of the handle, there is a lanyard hole allowing attachment of a securing cord.

Sheath made from durable ABS with multi-position mounting

The set includes a rigid sheath made from lightweight and damage-resistant ABS material. The openings and loops located on each side of the sheath allow for multi-position attachment to gear. A nylon belt loop is attached to the sheath with a steel flange, ensuring high stability and durability of the entire construction.

Sleipner feature
Sleipner
Sleipner is a modern Cr-Mo-V tool steel developed by the Swedish steel mill Uddeholm as an improved version of D2 steel. Its 0.9% carbon content ensures high hardness, while 7.8% chromium improves wear resistance and provides moderate corrosion protection. The steel also contains 2.5% molybdenum, 0.5% vanadium, 0.9% silicon, and 0.5% manganese, which increase structural stability, fracture resistance, hardenability, and deformation resistance. After hardening, Sleipner achieves a hardness of 60-64 HRC, while maintaining excellent resistance to chipping, high impact strength, and long-lasting edge sharpness. This steel is a popular choice in the manufacture of hunting, survival, tactical, and folding knives, where high strength and long-lasting sharpness retention are required.
G10 feature
G10
G10 is a lightweight and extremely durable material, considered one of the best for knife production. It is created by pressure-pressing fiberglass with phenolic resin, which gives it high durability and resistance to mechanical damage. It is chemically inert, does not conduct electricity, and retains its properties at both low and high temperatures. In terms of parameters, it is similar to carbon fiber, but its production is much cheaper. G10 handles are manufactured by precision cutting and cutting, which increases the cost of processing but ensures a perfect fit and long knife life.

    The knife gives a very good impression in terms of craftsmanship – it is solid, fits well in the hand, and works both outdoors and for heavier tasks. The blade stays sharp for a long time, and the sheath is comfortable and practical to carry. The order was processed quickly, and the product matched the description.

    WZ-25 Very nicely made, durable, sharp right out of the box. Worth recommending and its price. It's my first knife of this kind. I'll see how it holds up in a few years :D

    The WZ-25 is my ideal long-awaited forest knife. It fits perfectly in the hand, is hefty but not clumsy. Slipner steel holds sharpness very well, and the blade itself gives you a sense of complete control during cutting and heavy-duty tasks. The handle is ergonomic and secure, even with a wet hand. The sheath is well-made and holds the knife firmly in place. This is a tool you actually want to take to the forest and use without worry that something will overwhelm it. An ideal choice for someone who needs a strong work knife – without frills, but with real functionality. I recommend it.

    I definitely recommend it. A thoughtfully designed and well-made knife. Paired with the sheath, it looks like a tactical knife, but when you take it in your hand, you can't help but feel that it is a very good bushcraft or survival knife. The balance, weight, size, and shape of the blade along with the handle make the knife literally rotate by itself in your hand. The handle is perfectly finished, and when you look closely at the details of the blade (guard and jimping) along with the stonewashed finish, the Za-Pas WZ.25 knife takes on a handmade character. The ABS sheath is well-fitted and finished - no burrs or sharp edges. Of course, the biggest advantage for me is that it is fully Polish-made. It turns out that the Za-Pas WZ.25 is an excellent knife.

    A large, solid field knife. The workmanship is decent, and the materials are better than good for the work it is intended for. The sheath does its job. I recommend it with a clear conscience.

    A very solid tactical-outdoor knife that makes a good impression right from the first contact. The WZ.25 Grom from Za-Pas stands out with its robust full tang construction and Sleipner steel, known for its high resistance to wear and damage, making it well-suited for tough work in the field. The G10 laminate handle provides a secure grip even in difficult conditions, and the balance and blade thickness make the knife suitable for both survival and typical utility tasks. The stonewashed coating further helps to mask signs of use and increases resistance to corrosion. Overall, it is a very reliable, "working" knife—focused more on durability and functionality than on gadgets.

    The first thing I thought when I saw it was that it's a copy of the SRK, so I compared the two knives in the field. The advantages include greater weight and better steel, and that's about it. There are quite a few shortcomings: the sheath is of poor quality, creaks, and has gaps at the joint; the holes and their width seem randomly cut, too narrow for the straps used in molle, the loop for the belt is tiny, military belts don't fit. The only advantage is that it holds the knife well without rattling. The knife itself isn't full tang, but a skeletonized tang, there's a cut-out hole, so the construction is less durable, the handle scales are thin and slippery, so how can you work with this in a trench, in mud; they loosen during work, and overall the handle is small, not suitable for an adult man or soldier, maybe only for someone from North Korea or a girl. The jimping is uncomfortable and made too rough, really unnecessary, the guard is angular with sharp edges, the coating supposedly is abrasion-resistant until a piece chips off. And that's not just my opinion, because I let some friends compare the two knives and all chose the SRK. Fix these things and it will become a really solid knife worth its price. Fix the sheath, make the holes like in the SRK and the belt loop bigger and openable, make the knife full tang, without jimping, round off the guard on the finger side, make thicker handle scales with some pattern or grooves to improve grip, then I'd buy it even for four hundred because it'll be worth it.

    The only good thing about this knife is the steel, the rest is rubbish, especially the quality of workmanship, a crooked blade, and a sloppily finished handle. I definitely do not recommend this poor product.

    Great craftsmanship with precise attention to every detail, good sharpness, looks very solid and will definitely perform excellently in the field. The price is okay, it’s not a cheap knife, but it definitely belongs to the premium category.
