Description of the HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL knife:
Smith & Wesson HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL Knife very typical, actually reference, "urban survival" knife. Let's consider in order what tasks this category faces, and how this representative copes with them. Numerous disaster films and other products of modern mass culture will help us to imagine them as clearly as possible. So:
All of a sudden there is no light and communication. Someone has been yelling for an hour in a stuck elevator. There is no need to wait for help, and we decide to open the elevator doors on our own. Made of thick (almost 6 mm!) high quality steel(By the way, the 7Cr17 blade steel grade is a close analogue of the American 440A, widely known to all connoisseurs of edged weapons), the Smith & Wesson HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL knife is an excellent, due to its length, rigid lever. A few minutes later, people are rescued from a dangerous trap, and we decide to go outside.
Suddenly, a flashlight (the second indispensable attribute for “urban survival”, for example, MagLite 3D) snatches several aggressive-minded people from the darkness of the flight of stairs young people. ThisThis is the case when size matters, and, imagining the consequences of a fight with the owner of such an impressive knife, the hooligans hastily retreat.
There is a car accident in front of the house. The injured driver got stuck in the car. This time, we will use the features of the tanto shape (an Americanized version), because it allows us not only to cut, but to pierce and even chop! After sweating a lot and making a sufficient hole in the tin of the car, we easily cut through the still sharp Smith and Wesson jammed seat beltWe transfer the patient to a doctor who happened to be nearby to provide assistance and give out the sacramental “Doctor, will he be all right?” (remember that we rely on a Hollywood plot?), we sit down to rest, mechanically reviewing the thing that just saved a human life.
Advantages of the HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL knife
Tested by the harsh reality, Smith & Wesson HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL is still as good as new. The reason is the high-tech titanium nitride coating, which gives the knife a special wear resistance, andurban camouflage color of the blade, which reliably hides the inevitable scratches. Continuing to turn the cutter light enough for its size in our hands, we once again pay attention to its excellent balance. Interestingly, when they hear about balancing, many people think of throwing knives. In fact, one can speak about the degree of ideality in this aspect when you work with a knife for a long time and with pleasure without fatigue. By the way, our HOMELAND SECURITY SURVIVAL can be completelysuccessfully throw, although this is not its main function (it is still better to take something like TWT 623-3). The G-10 fiberglass handle is securely and ingeniously attached in three places and has enough safety margin for numerous drops and bumps. By the way, if knife weighing 348 gr. thrown at the enemy, then he will receive damage even in this case.
After such intensive use, we decided to sharpen the blade with the included diamond sharpener. Then we packed everything into sheath with specialremovable pocket and symmetrical access, made of CORDURA® (this is, of course, not an elite case, but quite a practical, convenient thing). And, hanging the scabbard on the belt, they wandered off to save the world further.
