The Project I (spear point blade) was designed in conjunction with Sgt. Karl Lippard, USMC and author of "The Warriors - United States Marines". The concept was to fulfill all the features which Sgt. Lippard felt were vital for a knife carried by a Marine. The 7.5" blade is perfect for chopping, digging and cutting, with sufficient weight up front for maximum strength and ideal balance. The wave serrations on the cutting edge are designed to cut easily through nylon cord or harness. The 2" cross guard has a night index which tells you by touch which direction the cutting edge is facing. The Project II has all the features of the Project I but has a traditional clip point blade.
The symmetrical leather sheath has a strap-and-snap closure that can be moved to accommodate left or right hand draw.
