The Patriot is one of my well-known combat knife models, this one was custom made for and honors the United States Army Special Forces. The blade is mirror polished and etched 440C high chromium stainless steel, and has a deep hollow grind, a full length top swage, and aggressive canted serrations for ripping through tough materials. The blade is full tang, one solid piece of steel from tip to butt. The bolsters are engraved 304 austenitic high nickel, high chromium stainless steel for zero care and great longevity. All bolsters are dovetailed and bed two pairs of matched Budstone (Verdite) gemstone handle scales, in deep and rich greens. The knife has one of my positively locking combat grade knife sheaths in thermoformed double thickness kydex over a 5052H32 corrosion-resistant, high strength aluminum alloy welt frame, all stainless steel locking components, and blued steel Chicago screws. A great knife for combat.
