Blades of honor. Tales of men.
The
There's a place in the Bay of Bengal called North Sentinel Island. The Sentinelese have lived in total isolation for thousands of years, attacking anyone who dares approach. They defend their home with apocalyptic rage. We created the APOCALYPSE for do-or-die survival. Handcrafted from a 6.95mm slab of Elmax steel with a 172mm blade, this knife means business. At 300mm total length, it makes adversity think twice.
Series Heritage
The Apocalypse knife draws its name from ancient Greek 'apokalypsis'—revelation. This is a revelation of what a field knife should be.
