Knife - Essential Tool for Camping, Outdoor Adventure and collection

S.E.R.E. 2, adopted by the Operational Group of Italian Navy Incursors, is the development of the S.E.R.E. 1, created by a study group composed of Special Forces operators, martial artists and experts in survival techniques. This variant 2 has been revised according to the needs expressed by the Department.

The acronym S.E.R.E. refers to the four principles "Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape" which make up the training program provided to military personnel at high risk of capture.

The S.E.R.E. 2 is suitable for both tip and cut use. The unique grip, unlike the classic blades of this type, is fixed between the index and the middle, thus forming a single axis from the tip of the blade to the user's wrist, allowing its use also in reverse grip. The handle has the same ergonomics as the butt of a firearm; this grip allows an instinctive and immediate use, being able to easily integrate the training in the training activity.

The geometry of the tip ensures maximum penetration, at the same time its axial profile with a triangular base protects its resistance. The design of the blade has on one side a partially serrated profile to favor the cutting of cordages, and on the other hand a classic cut or straps that, unlike the previous model, has re-sharpening and interchangeable blades.

The central loop, which has the dual function of lightening and turn-crickets, recalls the maritime origins of its creators. The peculiarity of the knife is that it has been specifically designed to be used even without the handle; the two holes in the part dedicated to the handle facilitate assembly.

The kydex sheath has a basic retention that can be used alone for operators who need extremely fast knife use, and a removable locking lock if necessary. The knife is supplied with double safety for ambidextrous mounting. An insert with a flat-blade screwdriver is available as an accessory. Comes with belt clip for belt fastening and paracord for fixing on the M.O.L.L.E. system.

"Using the gun, knife or other weapon for us is the same thing: it's just the extension of the hand." Quote from a commander of the ward.

Pohl Force's Quebec series is a classic mission knife that has been at the top of founder and designer Dietmar Pohl's wish list for many decades. In 2014, Pohl Force received exclusive permission from the original manufacturer to use the basic design for its interpretation.

Developed as the Ground Forces Combat & General Purpose Weapon, the multi-purpose knife was designed for the U.S. Marine Corps in the early 1950s. Although it was never officially introduced, it clearly demonstrated its capabilities in the Vietnam War, especially in the hands of American special forces. Almost 70 years after its first design, the modern Pohl Force interpretation of this classic represents the perfect fusion of old-school classic design and modern high-tech production.

Designer Dietmar Pohl has revised the design of the Quebec One and expanded the knife's range of functions. The blade of the new Quebec Two is now made of D2 steel instead of Sleipner, which brings higher levels of carbon and chromium, thus significantly improving cut and corrosion resistance. In addition, Dietmar Pohl has once again optimized the blade of the classic. The new version now has a 10 mm longer cutting edge and a secondary edge on the back.

In addition, the Pohl Force Prepper System has been integrated into the handle of the Quebec Two to safely store survival items inside the handle. A tool to open the handle screws is included. Pohl Force's new scabbard system allows for greatly increased use. The highly elaborate sheath, made of 2.5-mm-thick Kydex, with belt adapter and leg strap, allows for high carrying comfort. To attach it to the hand, the Quebec Two is equipped with a lanyard.

Total length: 315 millimeters
Blade length: 190 millimeters
Blade thickness: 6 mm
Weight: 380g
Blade material: D2 steel
Blade finish: titanium nitriding
Handle material: G-10
Handle thickness: 24 mm
Sheath: 2.5mm thick Kydex with Cordura belt hooks, removable

Il Red Spacer KA-BAR è probabilmente il coltello KA-BAR più collezionabile realizzato durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Il distintivo distanziatore rosso presente sotto la guardia ha attirato l'attenzione dei collezionisti per decenni. Sebbene gli originali siano rari e costosi, il laboratorio State & Union di KA-BAR - che si occupa delle realizzazioni custom - ha realizzato un piccolo lotto di questo iconico coltello.

Le rondelle in pelle sono modellate a mano per creare un aspetto invecchiato. Il fondello e la guardia sono lavorate artigianalmente per replicare le forme e le dimensioni dell'originale.

Ogni distanziatore rosso è fatto a mano per essere leggermente più lungo dell'attuale distanziatore utilizzato sui coltelli da combattimento/utilità KA-BAR. La lama viene sabbiata, quindi trattata a freddo.

Il fodero subisce un processo di invecchiamento per scurire la pelle e far corrispondere il colore del fodero originale.

The particular situation created in the early years of the 1914/18 war, now mired in increasingly complex and protected trenches and fortifications, favored the formation of men who, little by little, specialized in the coup.

Our assault units, the Arditi, had their dagger. It was obtained from the pieces cut away by the long blades of the Vetterli 1870 bayonets, which in the narrow trenches, in the corridors, between the reticulars were only an obstacle. It was certainly a rustic weapon, of recovery, not too beautiful but certainly inexpensive, light, not cumbersome and in expert hands also effective.

Today, on the occasion of the centenary, we recall this important page of Italian military history with a limited celebratory series in only 100 numbered copies. This version has a satin blade and a walnut wood handle and is sold with a wooden box and leather sheath.
