The Mongoose - Tumbled Black Nitride Blade Finish

Designed by Joe Fox while serving as a Special Forces (“Green Beret”) commander, the Mongoose serves admirably as a tertiary (and sometimes, primary) weapon and overall combat tool. Big and strong enough to accomplish required tasks, it is still easy to carry. Tough, durable, and easy to sharpen, the Mongoose is created in the USA by the skilled craftsmen at Shield Knife and Tool from CPM-3V steel. Crafted with canvas micarta scales on a contoured grip, the Mongoose is easy to wield in various positions even when wet. The point is on center line for accurate thrusting, and while sporting a narrow blade, it has a prominent belly allowing for excellent slicing and slashing. The protruding pommel is adequate for hammer-fisting coconuts or other tough materials. These, and many other details, combine to make the Mongoose the perfect knife for your upcoming adventures.
