Last Ditch Blade - SARclops

**KnifeOfWar** · 24-01-2014, 11:54

Hi guys

Does anyone know of anything comparable to this in SA?

Or of a bladesmith that could make a few if requested??

This is the SARclops of SAR Global Tool.

This wouldn't be my primary SD knife but I feel that I need something of this size.

The K-Bar TDi is similar. I would also not EDC something that does not have a proper handle.

the clinch pick is also interesting.

I have been looking at the TDI for a while, but for some reason I'm not a great fan...

Might be the sheaths fault.

But then again I can get the TDI tomorrow if need be, no waiting period.

I like the ring handle somewhat. I think its easy to grab in a FoF situation, but blade orientation might be tricky.

I have a Clinch Pick and it is awesome but you should accept and apply P'kal technique with it as that is it's main purpose.

Fred Perrin makes awesome micros and they are extremely sharp - Like the La Griffe - http://www.amazon.com/Fred-Perrin-Kn.../dp/B00CHRTT2Y I have one and can recommend it.

Talk to Long Range for the Crudo Nano - I have a sample - they may be coming in and are very compact http://www.krudoknives.com/NANO-Blac...ash-_p_57.html

I'm not sure this is true. A normal handle would be much easier.

Look in the knife pron thread how easily the TDI's sheath can be modified.

The ring system has a specific purpose of keeping hold of a very small low profile very compact blade when it becomes slippery and hectic and is ideally suited for neck carry or very deep concealment which the TDI does not do as well as these micro/nano blades imo.

Tdi also has their last ditch knife which is smaller and also cheaper. Although it doesnt look as nice

My thoughts exactly. I will have a look at those mentioned.

Thanks a lot!

That I fully believe and understand. I'm just not sure it is easier to access in a FoF situation than a normal handle.
