Excellent Elmax Steel: Unleash the Power of Supreme Durability and Performance
Introducing the TRC Knives Apocalypse, a knife that embodies the epitome of quality. Crafted from the finest Elmax steel available, this knife is a testament to our dedication to delivering exceptional performance. Elmax steel is renowned for its premium quality and remarkable properties. Through a meticulous hardening process comprising three crucial stages—hardening, cryogenic cooling, and tempering—we ensure that the Elmax blade reaches its peak potential. The result? An exceptionally robust blade that withstands heavy use, retains its sharpness over extended periods, and exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion. With the TRC Knives Apocalypse, you’ll experience unparalleled strength and durability.
Universal Blade for Unmatched Versatility: Conquer Any Task with Confidence
The blade, with a thickness of 6.5 mm (0.25″) and designed in a drop point style, is suitable for various survival applications. It can handle tasks like batoning wood and food preparation with ease. Its flat grind finish enhances smooth cutting and allows for versatile use. The blade features jimping, providing thumb support for tasks that require more force. The knife is equipped with a contoured guard to prevent hand slippage onto the cutting edge during work. The rounded spine protruding from the handle improves grip comfort and stability. The spine extends slightly beyond the handle on both sides, and there is a bit more material at the back end of the knife, which can serve as an improvised crushing tool, hammer, or glass breaker.
Ergonomic Handle: Unparalleled Comfort and Control
The handle scales, designed with an ergonomic and contoured shape, are made of Black Canvas Micarta laminate. This material is resistant to moisture, temperature changes, most solvents and acids, and exhibits high resistance to mechanical damage. Micarta is well-known for its excellent properties, both in terms of functionality and visual appeal (it can be stylized to resemble a natural material) and has a textured surface that provides a non-slip grip. The carefully designed construction ensures a comfortable fit in the hand, offering a strong and secure grip. The handle scales also feature through-pins, which serve the purpose of attachment (in addition to adhesive) and can be utilized to attach an additional lanyard. This lanyard can serve as a safeguard against accidental dropping of the knife during work or as an extra grip aid for easier removal of the knife from the sheath.
Included Kydex Holster: Secure and Convenient Protection
The knife comes with a black Kydex sheath, hand-molded and securely attached to a heavy-duty nylon loop that can be fastened to a belt. The flexibility of the Kydex material offers advantages during movements such as kneeling or bending, as it molds to the body without causing discomfort or constriction. To facilitate easy knife retrieval, a thumb support is incorporated into the snugly fitted Kydex sheath, allowing for controlled and safe extraction. Kydex itself is highly resistant to impact and scratches, has low moisture absorption, and is resilient to various weather conditions and chemicals. The sheath made from Kydex ensures comfortable and long-lasting use. The sheath is equipped with through-pins, which can be used to attach accessories such as a firestarter handle (included in the set), or to secure the sheath to a backpack, harness, or Molle-compatible system.
