The civilian world, naturally, hasthe same requirements - who does not wanta reliable companion attached to their beltwhen they are going to be out for a week?Despite its size, Mod.

Some items must never fail andhave got to withstand practically anything.Mod. A2 is an example of a strong knife thatwill never let you down, a knife that withstandsheavy use. The reason for its remarkableperformance is that we use a newly developedlaminated rust resistant steel, where the edgeconsists of our now famous VG10, and wherethe sides are made from resilient 420J2 steel.The combination of these different types ofsteel gives a blade that both retains its edgevery well and is fantastically strong. Sincewe ship this knife with a convex edge, it issuitable for both cutting and chopping. A wellsewnsheath in extra strong leather is added.For expeditions and hard outdoor life, Mod.A2 is a given companion.MC1 - the mine clearance knifeThe development of the Mod. MC1resulted from an official request from aNATO country. The knife has been usedin mine clearance since spring 2002. Theway the blade is ground is, in itself, wortha little extra attention - we start with a rawpiece of steel, over 6 mm thick, and use agrindstone with a very large diameter. Thisgives a slightly concave profile, which wefinish with convex grinding - by hand! Theresult is an edge that is extremely sharp,but also robust. The handle is made outof grip safe Kraton, a material which hasa good stability and is totally insensitive tosolvents, oils and DEET. The tang is of abroad, protruding type and is visible at theend of the grip, as in many of our knives.The knife is shipped with a double lockingZytel sheath.G1 - Garm FighterMod. G1 is a small, interesting sheathknife for military use. We use advancedspecial steel, our now famous VG10, toensure strength and good edge retention.The blade is coated in black Ceracoat8H to prevent reflections and corrosion.The symmetrical handle, in Thermorun,gives the best possible grip. The knife isshipped with a Zytel sheath that allows,for example, the knife to be carried roundthe neck, if this is preferred to having theknife in a pocket.
