PERFORMANCE Test by: Major Ian Humphrey
Performance
under extreme conditions are what Relentless knives are all about. Some good
examples of this are tests to see if the blade
could support the weight of a grown individual,
and how well a knife would serve as an emergency
rope anchor. Now you are probably asking why the
heck would anyone ever use a knife for these tasks?
Well,
extreme situations sometimes require uncommon
solutions. I
used a sledge hammer to pound the knife into
a tree and stood on the top edge of the blade. No
movement at all. Next, I hammered
the knife into the tree at a 90 degree angle
to the ground and stood on the blade width wise.
This
time the knife did flex but returned true
once I stepped off. And just for the heck of
it, I did the same test while standing on one foot
on the handle area of the knife. This caused the
most flex in the blade but again it returned to
normal once I stepped off. Next
I moved to the cliff and drove the knife
into the base of a tree and tied some nylon rope
around the handle. I was then able to lean out over
the ledge using an emergency rappel technique.
Again, the knife did bend a little, but it returned
to normal once I eased up on the rope. The
knife served as a very stable anchor for this task.
Why use a knife for a rope
anchor? A very real example
of this would be a Bush Pilot who’s
plane
crashes in the wilderness. Or just a hiker who has lost their way
in unfamiliar trails.
You
may need
your knife to act as a rope anchor as you safely
lower yourself to the ground, descend a rock ledge,
etc. After living in Alaska for three years,
I can remember several similar situations with a
plane crashing into the wilderness with civilization
many miles away. The
bottom line on all of these tests, and many
new ones in the future, is to ensure you are getting
the best tool for your money. While no knife
is indestructible, it is good to know that Relentless
knives withstand extreme abuse. Dan will
continue to develop new designs for different
applications, and I will continue to do my best to
ensure I abuse the knives so you don’t have
to. NOTE:
Doing these tests is dangerous, we do not
recommend that you try these applications at home, Breakage
of the
knife under these and other situations could cause serious injury or
death. Deliberate
attempts to destroy your knife are considered extreme abuse and will
void your lifetime replacement warranty. They are presented here simply
to illustrate the strength built into each Relentless Knife. There is
no magic involved . Modern steel, properly prepared
is incredibly strong. with abilitys far exceeding the above.. The key word
here is properly prepared, which takes considerable time and effort,
something many today have long forgotten.

of highly trained Police Officers dedicated to
keeping Hong Kong and it's

million passengers and 3.58 million tons of cargo per year, it's a big
job. Hong
Kong , the most densely populated city in the world, Ranked
in a 2006
Cato Institute report as, #1 for economic freedom, followed by
Singapore. New Zealand, Switzerland, and the United States tie for
third. Hong Kong
also ranked first in
“freedom to trade internationally” and second in
“size of government,”
“regulation of credit, labor and business” and
“labor market
regulations.” Surprising since in 1997 Hong
Kong government changed hands from UK, to Red China.

I
am working on NEW models for the 2008 catalog. You will see prototypes
and catalog variants in the next few months as I prepare NEW and
improved models for the catalog. Some present models will be canceled,
some will be improved, and of course some will stay as the reliable and
popular models they have been for years.
Candidates
for 2008 Catalog
M4XT
Not in our 2007
Catalog, this is a new combination of designs, that affords the
protection of a short sword and performance jungle machete. It was
thought that M4 Extreme might be extended, with the integral guard of
the M1i, (see my web site catalog)allowing the knife to be tethered to
the hand. This feature allows extreme hacking, and brush hogging
without the fear of the knife slipping out of the hand and being
dangerously propelled. This is a great knife for high adventure back
packing, and expeditions into uncharted territories where trails have
to be blazed rather than followed. The knife is light weight for it's
size, and Zone tempered for incredible strength.
Overall
length is approx 15 3/4", Blade 10 1/2" (measured from rear of guard) X
3/16" x 2"
M1 Map
This model
was introduced in 2007 catalog
OAL approx. 10 " with Blade, measured from rear of the guard, 5 3/4" x 1/4"
x 1 3/4" It's a great
medium sized knife with a blade under six inches. The MAP knife
will remain the Great Military Combat knife it has been.
M1 Interceptor
OAL approx. 11 1/2 " with Blade,
measured
from rear of the guard, 7 " x 1/4" x 1 5/8"
This knife is a variation of the
M1 Interceptor knife,available in my
2007 catalog. It has a
NEW handle shape for this model.

To
Kill an American
You
probably
missed it in the rush of news last week, but there was actually a
report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper an offer
of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.
So
an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let
everyone know what an American is so they would know when they found
one. (Good one, mate!!!!)
An
American is English, or French,
or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An
American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese,
Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or
Afghan.
An
American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage,
Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes
known as Native Americans.
An
American is Christian, or he could
be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in
America than in Afghanistan . The only difference is that in America
they are free to worship as each of them chooses.
An
American is
also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to
God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the
government and for God.
An
American lives in the most prosperous
land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be
found in the Declaration of Independence , which recognizes the God
given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.
An
American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other
nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in
return.
When
Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20
years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people
to win back their country! As of the morning of September 11, Americans
had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan.
Americans
welcome the best of everything...the best products, the best books, the
best music, the best food, the best services.
But
they also welcome the least.
The
national symbol of America , The Statue of Liberty , welcomes your
tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the
homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built
America .
Some
of them were working in the Twin Towers the
morning of September 11, 2001 earning a better life for their families.
It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least
30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those
that aided and abetted the terrorists.
So
you can try to kill an
American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and
Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world. But, in
doing so you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not
a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of
the human spirit of freedomTiananmen Square, Taiwan
independence , Falun Gong
.
