511 Tactical Tomahawk
511 Tactical Tomahawk - This is an All Time Favorite
The 511 Tactical Tomahawk Knife is an iconic and popular folding knife. The design was created by Leo Kranz and James Edward Kranz in 1978. This knife has been around for over three decades and was initially created for the military. The tactical Tomahawk was an instant success because of its reliability, ease of use, and ability to change between a blade and a fixed blade.
The five point safety feature includes a safety against the handle getting stuck. The handle locks open when the user is ready to fold the knife. There is also a safety lock that prevents the knife from closing out of position when the slide is locked in place.
One of the important features of the tactical Tomahawk is its tactical orientation. The openers on the sides can be opened up when needed and then used for cutting rather than accidentally opening up the blades.
The tactical Tomahawk uses a lock mechanism that keeps the knives blade closed while folded. The cut is reversible in the folding mechanism of the knife. This is a good feature because it allows the user to quickly and easily shift between cutting with the openers on the side. This makes it possible to be used as a primary knife without compromising security.
The 511 Tactical Tomahawk is easy to carry. It has a reversible pocket clip and a wire cutter that are compatible with many types of cord locks. The knife has the option of being used as a safety knife as well. It is possible to be used as a fighting knife without taking off the handle.
The Tomahawk's construction is excellent. It has a one hundred percent stainless steel blade, which ensures a strong and dependable knife. The blades of knives such as these are thicker, so there is less of a chance that the blade will become dull or break in the middle of a job. The blade is also designed to be re-sharpened easily if necessary. This is a very good feature, because a re-sharpened blade allows a user to use the knife for a longer period of time.
The handle is comfortable and made of tough plastic. The knife is small enough to be carried in a back pocket, and a large enough blade to cut and pry through most materials. The plastic handle is easy to use, and the knife opens very easily.
The Tomahawk can be used for a variety of jobs. It is useful for many different jobs, from cutting wires to using as a permanent tool for woodworking. A great feature of the knife is that the blade has a ricasso that makes it easier to switch between the knife's openers. The handle of the knife is ergonomically friendly. It has a good grip on the user's hand, and the handle is very comfortable.
It also has a cutting tip which enables the user to cut through very thin materials, such as sheet metal, without a problem. The knife has a one hundred percent serrated edge, which makes it easier to cut through metals and materials with high moisture content. The knife is also able to make deep cuts into solid material.
The Tomahawk comes with a laminated, contoured, all plastic handle. This handles are very light and are more durable than many other handles on the market. The handle is easy to clean and looks nice on any type of knife. A great feature of the knife is that the handle of the knife is reversible.
The knife can be used with either the blade on the right or left side, but it's recommended that the knife is used on the right side. The knife has a back lock that enables the blade to stay open when the handle is folded down. This makes it easier to keep the knife in the pocket and to work quickly.
