High Speed D2 - high carbon, high chrome high-speed tool steel heat-treated to 58-60 HRC. Thanks to the high content of 13.0% chromium (Cr) offers greater corrosion resistance than most high-carbon steels. Combination of durability, excellent edge holding and easy sharpening. It is characterized by high wear resistance due to the high content of carbides in the microstructure.

Head - type Drop Point covered with a fine scratch masking finish Stone Washed. Precision ground blade offers a balance of edge holding and corrosion resistance. Plain blade Plain with a clearly marked belly and flat full cut (Full Flat Grind) provides strength and the pronounced tapering of the blade towards the shank reduces weight.

Handle - profiled plastic facings G10 in color OD green. Processed in 3D and smoothly polished to an attractive finish, provide a secure grip. An additional nylon cord is wound on the handle. The tang covers are attached to the shank with strong cylindrical rivets, which reduce weight and serve to pull the safety line through, and in an emergency situation allow you to attach the knife to a pole to create an improvised spear.

Vagina - made of plastic kydex. Allows you to quickly retrieve the knife and protects it from falling out and moisture. The holster is equipped with a multi-position handle with three adjustment screws for carrying on the belt or on a mount.

Fire Starter - easy to use included, reliable flint. The igniter consists of a rod (spark gap) with magnesium that burns at a very high temperature. Ideal for a quick fire in any conditions.
