Small Update 13JUL2011

Most of last week was spent working through a small Covert/Last ditch knife concept for Karl at OscarDelta SPD OscarDelta SPD. I made about 5 different designs, some will never see the light of day...lol.

This little knife is almost 1" tall and 5" long with about a 2 1/4" blade, I have not revealed all that is going on with this design until I have the time to work out some minor details. Also there is possibly some "trademark" work I will have to do to protect some of the design features. These should be available soon.

At the moment I am working through some 1911 TDT orders which was featured in "Tactical Knives" magazine September issue.

Here is a 59 second video I did last year showing the knife in operations.

It is pretty much Africa hot here, feels a lot like this video

Pack and Boat knife


Nothing special a real minimalist approach to mans oldest tool. Good utility blade for backpacking, kayak fishing, and survivalist needs. Not to big not to small, not to thick and not so thin etc etc lots of compromise. It should do well for many application.
I made five in CPM 154 and one in 6LA4V ti
.125"x7.5" OAL with a 3.5" blade
HRc 59-60 on the cpm 154 and the ti has a carbidized enhanced edge
Low viz, low maintenance SAR tumble finish
Handle is drilled out balance point is dead center

Handle wrap is 2 part.
 first layer is approximately 3" .038" "Kevlar Thread— Has a breaking strength five times greater than steel wire. It also has excellent heat and flame resistance. Meets MIL-T-87128. Maximum temperature is 400° F. Color is yellow"
Under the Kevlar thread is 1 small 1 large stainless steel fishing hooks.
Over wrap is approximately 3' of 5/32" braided nylon that has zero stretch, very durable and made for the commercial fishing industry used as rigging line.
Butt end has a small pry/flat screwdriver.

I still have a few things to add to the sheath..fire starter, signal, pace and small compass via a SAR O'rig. We will be taking the kids camping this weekend and I plan to use the shit out of a few of these...tell ya how it goes next week.

Thanks

Could not pass on this one

I was presented with a great deal on a rifle that I have been wanting for a long long time. Finally got a AK, a polish made AK-74 which shoots the lighter, faster, 5.45x39mm. Anyways I leave tomorrow for my journey back home with a few stops along the way. Really cannot wait to put this thing through the paces, I have a Aimpoint Comp M4 that will get mounted up soon.

If you get a chance please check out Bret at Grey Ghost Tactical Grey ghost web site he runs a really nice, clean shop with high end quality gear.
