RMJSPARROWOB: Sparrow Fixed Blade, Black/Orange 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. This knife was not meant to be used as a pry bar; it was 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 frontiersman 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).

If you are looking for the perfect EDC knife that can be easily concealed then look no further! The Sparrow measures 7" overall with a 3.5" Nitro-V Stainless steel blade wearing a Black Cerakote finish. The G10 handles are of high quality and look extremely excellent. The knife includes a friction-fit Kydex sheath with an IWB belt clip allowing for comfortable carry anywhere on your person. The Sparrow was designed by RMJ crew member Charles Taylor and was proudly made in the USA.

Smaller than expected
Although the basic dimensions are disclosed, I was nonetheless surprised at how truly diminutive -- and hence overpriced -- this knife actually is. The name "Sparrow", as well as the nominal weight of just 2.2 ounces, should have been a serious clue that this is not very beefy woods tool. But I do feel a bit misled by the marketing narrative, which makes it sound like it is simultaneously ground to tactical specs while still useful as a pry bar. Sorry, but it isn't really so. It has tactical application, for sure, but it is not the knife I would want on an expedition. It's otherwise as advertised. It is well crafted, and I suppose the design is novel, aesthetically pleasing and clever enough to pay a premium for. I just wouldn't have chosen to pay that premium, personally, if I'd known that my $200 knife would not be substantial enough to handle the forest abuse I'm accustomed to dishing out. Just my opinion.

A great EDC option
I just received mine yesterday, but I feel compelled to review it, since I don't see any. This knife is well made, ergonomic, high quality, sharp & EDC-carries perfectly. I carry vertical just in back of my jeans pocket. I removed the scout carry MAD straps & added 2 Blade-Tech 1.5" Quick Loops. I carry left-handed but I mounted the straps right-handed so the knife sheath is inside my belt with the straps outside. The knife is much closer to my body & doesn't print through my shirt. The Tungsten Cerakote finish should be bombproof. So far I got my money's worth. More to come after testing. I clicked "sheath" in the "con" column only because of the MAD straps.
