RMJ3VWYAETS: 3V Syndicate Textured Wyvern Short Sword, Orange/Black Striped G10 - KnifeCenter Exclusive

RMJ Tactical

Years ago when Ryan Johnson was making a special order knife for a SWAT team member, a good friend and resident critic John came by the shop to look the knife over. "The tip is too narrow and thin," he said. "It will break if the person using the knife tries to pry something open." Ryan told him that this knife was not meant to be used as a pry-bar, just for cutting.

John then said something that both defined the word "tactical" and, most importantly, changed Ryan's design paradigm forever: "The situations this person finds himself in should determine what this knife is used for. If he needs to cut something, it cuts. If he has to pry a door open, it's a pry-bar. These are high-energy situations where every second counts. You can't carry everything you would like to carry; the knife will have to be able to complete a multitude of tasks."

In a perfect world, a soldier or law enforcement officer would have ready access to all of the tools and weapons he ever needed, but that just isn't possible. It takes more than an aggressive look or a gray and black finish to make a fixed blade a tactical knife. Remember, knives meet the needs of the soldiers and frontiersmen as both a tool and weapon in the battlefield conditions they encounter. In Ryan's view, a contemporary tactical fixed blade should be able to withstand all modern battlefield conditions — areas ranging from the Salt Lake City, Utah, Olympics, to the Jungles of South America, to the rugged mountains in Afghanistan. (RMJ Tactical knives have been carried in all three).

RMJ believes that short swords are not only highly effective for many uses, but they are also just plain cool, and that's precisely why we designed the Wyvern. The question could quickly be asked why someone would need a short sword. Well, for starters, use it to cut any damn thing you want! The forward-weighted balance makes the Wyvern excellent for chopping tasks. The super tough CPM-3V steel blade will take ridiculous amounts of abuse, and is perfect for all your hard outdoor-use needs. The blade has an acid-etched finish for a really unique look. No two are exactly the same. The handle ergonomics are outstanding and work great with or without gloves. The contoured G10 handle features diagonal texturing for an aggressive but secure and comfortable grip. The handles are secured with Grade 5 Titanium hardware fasteners that are anodized bronze. The Wyvern includes a Kydex sheath that has a 1/3 open top design for easy deployment when carried on your back or a backpack, and comes with a Low Ride M.O.C. strap, M.O.C. rings, as well as High Ride M.O.C. straps for easy deployment and a multitude of carry options.   

These hand-textured 3V Syndicate Wyverns are acid etched with orange/black striped G10 handles. They include a 3V Syndicate membership, a walnut wood presentation box, a 3V Syndicate Leather Patch, and Copper Coin.
