Bearing the namesake and
call sign of legendary
Navy SEAL Paul Basal,
this knife is the new
choice of operational
warriors throughout the
globe! Designed by Basal
with the Dark Ops design
chief, it features all
the critical items for a
Modern Spec-Ops knife.
The Shadow offers an
extended blade length
for penetrating Comm-bloc
frag vests with an
accelerated spearpoint
tip and sharpened
foretip for maximum
penetration. The top
edge features a bone
breaker and a radical,
self-cleaning BlastRip
saw for carving survival
notches in spears and
anchoring notches for
detonation cord. A pat
pend. BarbSnap cutter
allows for rapid
notching and snapping of
interdiction wires in
entry ops. An
abbreviated
top-hilt/bottle opener
works with a new
serrated palmstop,
allowing for a reverse
grip with an astonishing
six linear inches of
surface area! The Shadow
features a corrosion
resistant finish
designed to take the
saltwater immersion
often involved in SEAL
operations. The handle
is made of a low-durometer,
high tensile aramid
composite that is
impervious to everything
from aviation fuel to Al
Qaeda body fluids. The
handle is thinner and
wider for greater
mechanical advantage
with deep finger grooves
orienting the blade axis
of the knife in the hand
and dramatically
increasing effective
grip surface. A
prominent WhipLok finger
notch provides an axis
point for hacking as
well as 200 degrees of
grip area, ideal with
wet hands or when using
gloves. The handles are
field replaceable to
blend with woodland,
desert or black camo
schemes. Quartz
impregnated inserts
provide extreme
circumstances grip
enhancement and are
replaceable should
decontamination be
required. The Basal
Shadow utilizes the same
CTV2™ Blade Steel and
CryoHardening techniques
as the StratoFighter
Folders! The hilts do
not protrude forward
effectively reducing the
length of the blade.
Hollow grinding lends to
greater cutting and
slashing effectiveness.
Deep blood grooves keep
the weight of the full
.250 inch thick blade
properly balanced in the
hand. The black Titanium
CarboNitride (TiCN)
vacuum deposited finish
is designed to shed the
micro-fine airborne sand
of Middle-Eastern
deserts.
