Speed is of the essense. The quicker the draw, the less likely an assailant will have to get the upper hand. This is the knife I carry. Iterestingly enough I think of the knife part as a secondary weapon. The people I've had to whack with the knuckle part want nothing more to do with it. I used to carry a Fairbairn Sykes commando and had to use that a few times, but since I started carrying my knuckle knife about ten years ago, I haven't had to cut anyone. Nice to have options and speedy too.
Highly recommended. A Serious business knife.

I guess that link doesn't show it but when you buy one it comes with a shoulder-holster rig for carrying it inverted and concealed. The knife is housed in a molded plastic and greased case that the knife clips in, and that is inside a reverable nylon holster so you can carry it right or left.
WHACK!

Fri, February 11, 2005 - 5:05 PMits still only a UC piece, there manurfacture and heat treat is rather poor.
The hissatsu by CRKT is IMO the best self defence knife out there...designed by James Williams whom has had many years in real combat and MA training.

Fri, December 16, 2005 - 2:38 PMI certainly agree that the knife-shaped part of this thing is extraneous.
I opine that 420J2 *barely* qualifies as knife steel. And for $14 to $20 USD, I can guarantee that the heat treatment was sub-par. -

Wed, May 17, 2006 - 5:45 AMI'm sure you are right about the quality, but for $15, you can throw it away if need be and not worry about it. I would imagine that is the reason for the price point.
