Knife: Another great custom handmade PJLT for
an active duty United States Air Force Pararescueman, this PJLighT
is a popular knife for good reason. The proven tanto blade style is
a favorite in Combat Search and Rescue, with plenty of width to
support the strong point and thickness that is relieved behind the
point with a half length top blade swage. The 440C martensitic
stainless steel is highly corrosion resistant and suitable for use
in wet missions, and with the bolsters and pins made in 304 high
nickel, high chromium stainless steel, this knife can take every
environment that the Pararescueman might encounter. The handle is
solid and well shaped in the hand, and the handle material is canvas
reinforced micarta phenolic, which offers good tooth for tactile
traction. The entire knife is bead blasted for a no glare look and
easy care, and the hollow ground blade has a razor keen single bevel cutting edge
with 2" of my Vampire rip teeth serrations for realistic and
dependable use.
Sheath: The sheath is
made of double thickness kydex, thermoformed over a .250" double
layered 5052H32 corrosion resistant, high strength aluminum welt frame, secured with
nickel plated steel Chicago screws. The sheath is fully and
positively locking and waterproof. All of the components of the
locking mechanism are stainless steel for ultimate corrosion
resistance and longevity. This is, simply, one of the finest knife
sheaths made for CSAR and CQB. The sheath has reversible belt
loops for a variety of carry and wear options. On the sheath face is
a removable custom engraved maroon lacquered brass flash plate.
A great knife going to one of our best, and he honors me in its
use!
