Russ Kommer, an Alaskan maker, designed a
knife for his wife to carry in her purse. Every bush pilot, parachutist,
and commercial fisherman who saw it wanted one and kept Russ with more
work than he could finish. The answer to his problem was a joint venture
with Columbia River Knife and Tool. This is a cutting tool that really
gets into webbing, rope or netting. The blade is AUS6M, it comes either
razor sharp or in an EMT style, with fully serrated edge and safety tip,
just right for cutting away clothing from accident victims or cutting seat
belts. The sheath has a clip that can be placed at either end, seven
lanyard holes and belting slots which allow it to be carried in many ways.
The knife weighs only 2.9 oz. and the sheath only 1 oz. The knife has a 2"
blade and it measures 5-5/8" overall. |
