Timberline-94021 Aviator Tactical fighting survival knife

THE TIMBERLINE AVIATOR KNIFE WAS DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR AVIATORS, HOW DO I KNOW??? I TALKED TO THEM AT THE BLADE SHOW IN ATLANTA AND THIS WAS ON THEIR DESIGN TABLE. THE 4 INCH BLADE IS MADE OF 440C WHICH IS A GREAT STEEL AND RESISTS RUST WELL AND IT IS VERY TOUGH. THE KNIFE WAS DESIGNED FOR CUTTING WIRES FROM AVIONICS TO FENCEING WIRE. ACTUALLY, THE AVIATOR IS A SCALED DOWN VERSION OF EMERSON'S SPECWAR KNIFE. THE HANDLES ARE VERY UNIQUE FOR A FIXED BLADE BEING DESIGNED TO BE VERY ERGONOMIC. IT IS GLASS FILLED NYLON HANDLE WITH THE ANGLES FITTING THE HAND PERFECTLY. IT COVERS THE FULL TANG BLADE. IN A WORD THIS NIFE IS - TOUGH. THE KYDEX SHEATH SYSTEM IS ALSO VERY WELL DESIGNED. IT CAN BE CARRIED ABOUT ANYWHERE. IT CAN UTILIZE STRAPS TO MOUNT TO A LEG OR TO NUMEROUS OTHER OBJECTS. IT ALSO HAS A BELT LOOP. THE STRAIGHT EDGE OF 440C STEEL HAS A ROCKWELL HARDNESS OF 58 TO 59. THE BLADES FINISH IS BEAD BLAST MATTE. THIS KNIFE IS NO LONGER MADE BUT VERY WELL LIKED. SO IF YOUR A BUSH PILOT OR PACKING OUT AND NEED A GREAT CAMP KNIFE, THIS IS IT. YOU GET THE KNIFE AND SHEATH, IT HAS BEEN ON DISPLAY FOR FOR ALMOST 15 YEARS.
