A.G. Russell Knives

Discontinued.

From the Manufacturer:

The M16® Fire Department Zytel® models are designed to meet the special requirements of those in fire fighting. For strength, we use our rigid InterFrame build with 420J2 stainless steel liners. Scales are injection-molded Fire Engine Red Zytel, which is a tough, strong composite of fiberglass and nylon designed to handle the worst abuse. The scales are textured for good grip in wet conditions.

1* designs feature AUS-8 stainless steel blades, chosen for edge retention and durability. Black titanium nitride coating provides extreme corrosion resistance. Blade edges are Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated to handle rugged cutting tasks that break down standard cutting edges.

All models feature the "Carson Flipper" extension to the blade, which aids opening, especially when wearing gloves, and acts as an additional blade guard.

One-hand opening and closing is velvet smooth, the result of Teflon® bearings at the blade pivot. The ambidextrous thumb stud with checkered surface provides instant access in any circumstance.

Beginning in 2006, all models feature our new patented* AutoLAWKS®, which automatically turns the folders into fixed blades when the blade is opened and locked. Click here to see more information on the AutoLawks

Every model features a removable black Teflon-plated stainless steel clothing/gear clip."
