Mission MPT12-Ti-CT MPT Multi-Purpose Tactical Knife, Titanium, Coyote Tan Handle, ComboEdge, Black Sheath

Mission MPT12-Ti-CT MPT Multi-Purpose Tactical Knife, Titanium, Coyote Tan Handle, ComboEdge, Black Sheath. The MPT Knife was created from the desires and needs of multiple military units who wanted a light weight, high strength, non-magnetic, non corrosive tool -- a titanium bladed knife -- with a more compact and thinner silhouette, and with a "higher speed & lower drag coefficient" than the popular U.S. Navy MPK.

The blade of the MPT has a distinctive false edge, which can be readily sharpened as the user chooses. Note the grooved section on the blade's spine, which gives a better non-slip surface when applying pressure to the blade with the thumb. Also notice the deep choil which allows the user to safely place a forefinger in front of the lower guard for a better grip when using the knife for fine or delicate cutting.

The MPTs ergonomic hilt was specifically designed to feel comfortable in either hand, and, at the same time, can easily be shifted into any aggressive grip style needed to meet any challenge. Notice the angled thumb ramp that naturally places the thumb in a comfortable and blade controlling position. The parrot's beak shaped butt of the hilt allows the user maximum purchase when using the blade in either the standard (hammer) grip, fencer's (sideways) grip, or ice-pick (reverse) grip. Complementing the hilt is the large integral guard, which ensures that the user's hand will consistently stay on the hilt and not slip forward onto the blade.
