- One good idea often leads to another. As custom knifemaker Jim Hammond was designing his A.B.C. (All Bases Covered) diving and whitewater knife/sheath system, it suddenly became obvious that the system had all the qualities to make an excellent dry land fixed blade.
- Strength, a flat profile, carry versatility, corrosion resistance, and a low reflectance black finish.
- And so the pointed-tip A.B.C. Operator's Model was born, with a drop point dual grind Tanto Razor-Sharp blade, a false top edge and Triple-Point Serrations.
- It is an ideal general purpose fixed blade for hikers, climbers, pilots, parachutists, and military personnel.
- Like the A.B.C. Aqua, the blade is a full-tang skeletonized design of premium AUS 8 stainless steel, which takes an excellent edge and holds it through the roughest use.
- For maximum corrosion resistance, the steel is first mirror polished to close the pores, and then black titanium nitride coated.
- The finger choils are heavily friction grooved for sure grip.
- The black injection molded Zytel scales have an aggressive texture and are held in place with corrosion resistant Torx fasteners.
- The Zytel sheath with dual attachment panels and a black plated spring steel clip allows eight carry modes and countless variations.
- Black finish brass Chicago screws allow adjustment of the knife compression fit into the sheath, so you can carry the knife inverted with confidence and fine tune the draw. Equally important, they can be used for a multitude of attachment orientations: on belts, webbing, pocket flaps, with leg straps, on PFDs, or with a neck cord.
- You decide how and where to carry the A.B.C. Operator's Model.
- When you need it, you can be sure it will be up to the task.
