RMJKPGDO: Peregrine Fixed Blade, Dirty Olive

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).

The Peregrine is a fast, light, general purpose/fighting fixed blade featuring an aggressive recurve tanto shape. The alignment of the blade tip to the handle allows for a very efficient transfer of power for stabbing. The blade has a Tungsten Cerakote finish for corrosion resistance and a low-vis look. The beveled and contoured G10 grips feature diagonal texturing for an aggressive but comfortable and secure grip. The Peregrine comes with a molded Kydex scabbard including two MAD straps that allow for scout carry (horizontal) and inside-the-waistband (IWB) vertical carry. The sheath is MOLLE compatible and can also be attached to any pack, plate carrier, or similar gear with PALS webbing. The scabbard will work with most of the popular clips and mounts like the Discreet Carry Concepts Clip and UltiClip. The Peregrine was designed by RMJ crew member Jonathan Carmack and was proudly made in the USA.
