RELENTLESS M1 Aviator
This
is a Rare. Top Quality, High Performance, Full Tang Combat/Utility
Knife,.that can be compared to Randall, Probis, etc It is handmade by
Daniel M. Certo Bladesmith.
Individually
hand ground from bars of Premium Grade Cutlery Steel. ( no laser
cutouts or pre made blade blanks). In house heat treating, tempering,
and testing for strength and durability allow me to offer you a knife
that looks good and won't fail you when you need it , even under the
most extreme conditions.
100%
handmade in my shop the knife was ground from a bar of 1/4" 5160 High
Carbon, High strength steel OAL aprox.10.5 " with Blade 6 1/4" x 1/4" x
1 5/8" Steel guard silver soldered to the blade. Note: Blades are
measured from rear of guard.
This
knife is great for Aircrew Egress, Military , Survival, use.. A special
grind inspired by the Probis M9 bayonet allows for a very strong sharp
point which enhances penetrating capability and cutting ability while
maintaining blade thickness. and strength.. top serration's are saw
teeth and cut lots of stuff. the area behind the point is designed so
that the knife can be struck with wood to aid in splitting small fire
wood. The saw tooth serration's are effective for ripping through lots
of stuff. etc, and will also cut through light metal sheeting and
aircraft body's.
The
knife is Zone Tempered, a process used by Japanese Samurai sword makers
for thousands of years, results in a super strong blade, with spring
temper in the spine and 58rc hardness on the cutting edge, This gives
you a knife that resists breakage even with the application of great
lateral forces,that will hold an edge well, and resharpen easily. Bead
blast finish for low profile non glare , with darker gray areas
highlighting the differential tempering
The
almost indestructible Black Canvas Micarta handles , Snake Skin finish
for great gripability, are attached with stainless bolts and accented
with red spacers The knife is handsome, feels great in the hand, and is
extremely durable. Hand stitched Pouch front, leather sheath included.
The
knife's blend of simplicity, strength, and functional reliability, make
for a great combat, bush, or camp knife. an excellent addition to your
outdoor/military gear or knife collection.
This and all RELENTLESS KNIVES and DMC ORIGINALS are 100% handmade by
me, in my shop, from top quality materials. They are built for a
lifetime of use and have a LIFETIME REPLACEMENT WARRANTY
Take it with you on your next adventure. It's built to withstand
extreme conditions, and waiting to become your faithful companion I'm
