• Knife: Custom made for a great client, here's a PJLT with a G10 handle and locking sheath. A beautiful, useful, and popular knife, this one will give decades of service. It's easy to see why this is my most popular knife. The tanto blade is stout and hollow ground for a low relief angle and a very sharp single bevel cutting edge. Add to that the 2" of deep "vampire" serrated rip teeth for the most stubborn cutting chores. The blade has a two-thirds length top swage for reduced point profile, and the spine and handle tang are clean with no filework to hold debris. The fully tapered tang is bolstered with zero care 304 high nickel, high chromium stainless steel bolsters which are dovetailed  to bed a striking handle of blue and black layered G10, secured with four 304 stainless steel thick 1/8" pins. G10 is a pressure and heat-formed epoxy laminate that is reinforced with fiberglass, and one of the toughest manmade handle materials made. It's bead blasted for increased texture and tooth to assure a good, tight grip, aided by the quillons on the front and rear bolster. I've domed it in the handle swell for a comfortable shape, which also brings out the layered pattern. 
• Sheath: One of my fine locking, waterproof tactical models on this knife; it has double-thickness kydex over a 5052H32 corrosion resistant, high strength aluminum welt frame. The sheath has all stainless steel locking components for low-care and high usability with security. The sheath is secured with stainless steel machine screws and  nickel plated steel Chicago screws. 1.75" wide belt loops are die formed in high strength aluminum, and are reversible for versatile wear.
• This is a very tough knife and sheath, the same model carried by USAF Pararescuemen, law enforcement, and professional rescue technicians in combat and emergency rescue operations.
