ANV Knives M311 SPELTER - TOPO, MICARTA OLIVE, KYDEX COYOTE ANVM311-014

The M311 SPELTER knife was crafted in collaboration with forward air observation units, close protection teams, and special air operations personnel. Input from other military and security experts also played a crucial role in its design. Our development process was heavily influenced by their practical experiences and specific needs. This collaboration allowed us to rigorously test the quality of the materials, design, and overall construction. The knife underwent extensive testing in extreme environments and diverse climates, from the scorching, arid, and humid regions of Asia to the frigid zones beyond the polar circle. The blade is forged from premium Swedish Elmax steel, renowned for its superior quality. This high-grade steel extends through the entire knife to the base of the handle, which features a glass-breaking point. The blade is coated with a robust DLC (Diamond-like Carbon) finish, which reduces glare, resists corrosion, and enhances the steel’s sliding capabilities. The handle is crafted using 3D machining from Micarta, providing a comfortable and secure grip due to its ergonomic shape and textured grooves. A safety paracord loop is included to prevent the knife from slipping during use. The knife's structure is reinforced with solid threaded sleeves and four M5 screws, all featuring a DLC finish. For secure and convenient carrying, the knife comes with a self-locking Kydex sheath, designed with openings for attachment to a blade-tech system, allowing for compatibility with both molle and pals tactical webbing. A generous flow opening ensures quick and easy maintenance of the sheath. Additionally, a belt hanger is provided for effortless belt carry.
