Ka-Bar's
G10 MULE is a hefty folder with G10 handle scales and gun-metal gray bolster
& blade tackle the toughest tasks in style. A partially serrated blade assists
in cutting looped and synthetic fibers. Features a reversible pocket clip.
A
compact, stout tanto blade is fiercely rugged and appropriate for piercing
through the toughest materials. The tanto is a sword but is used as a knife.
The blade is single or double edged. They are characterized by an angular,
almost noncontinuous edge made up of two cutting planes. The edge draws a line
out from the handle before making a hard change of direction and running to the
tip, resulting in a striking appearance and broad, durable point.
G-10
is a high-pressure fiberglass laminate, created by glass cloth soaked in epoxy
resin compressed under heat until the epoxy cures. It is the toughest glass
fiber resin laminate and the most used. It is used as a filler material. It is
favored for its high strength, low moisture absorption, and high level of
electrical insulation and chemical resistance.
420
Stainless Steel is a high-carbon steel, giving the blade excellent corrosion
resistance properties with increased toughness. It has a shiny silvery finish,
which is very eye-catching. 420 Stainless Steel is easy to sharpen to its
original condition.
