What's up guys black sky survival and today I have the winkler belt knife triple art design edition and this is a combination fighting and field knife you know obviously designed by Winkler knives and Weakland I was - he has he's a blade Smith here in the US and I believe he's out of North Carolina and he's designed a lot of fighting style.

Knives and tomahawks and stuff like that for a lot of tier one operators I know in the book no easy day the Navy SEAL Mark Owen was wearing the winkler knife on his belt whenever he went to do the Osama bin Laden raid but this knife is made of CPM 3v and you know that steel is one of my favorites you probably heard before me talk about it a good bit.

And because his strength and with that type of strength you can go with a lighter blade and that's the whole reason behind this is for to be a lighter blade without sacrificing durability or strength and that way in a fighting situation you know you can this night can be maneuvered very fast so the blade has good enough wait for batani.

Even though it's thin profile it is still you know strong enough to ppattani and see the wear marks i've put on the blade from a baton and a good bit in the coating hatton came off you know still looks good i just have to wash it off the knife has a reduced handle that allows you to you know choke up for users with smaller hands that can choke.

Up high on the knife or kind of go back without really sacrificing your maneuverability of the night you know it has this kind of slope here so it really catches in your hand and stays in your hand and there's some jimping on the knife very nice jimping and I believe triple design I made in addition to the jimping from my Winkler knives this is a.

Flat grind and I like flat grind because it's uh batani acts like a wedge in this shipping will give you traction especially for that final work you know when you're you know making feather sticks or whatnot you see there but I mean good blade profile it has a you know slope here kind of like I.

Believe it's called a bird beak or something like that or Hawk feet slope so it gives you that forward momentum of the blade whenever you're you know using the knife recliner task and it gives you a lot of strength you can see the kind of linear path behind the blade to give you that strength on those finer cuts like that and the tip here with that.

Profile you're not going to you know chip the blade or break the tip off the handle is made this one is made from black rubber and I believe it's recycled tire rubber and it's very very grippy looks good you can also get a micarta version of this but I like this rubber a lot it's very grippy in the hand especially if you're wet you know doing.

Type of operations or whatnot the blade has a blade length of four point eight six inches and overall length of nine point twelve inches and it's six point five ounces so it's very very like knife you know very maneuverable and a knife fighting situation let's talk about the sheath for a second the sheath is a very unique design from Winkler you see the.

Triple design logo there and the knife can be worn you know Scout style like horizontally or vertically has the contacts disc on the back and there's another letter leather piece that goes across the back to weave it into your belt loop but I really like it the leather is almost like form-fitting like onyx but it also has a felt lining.

Inside to protect the blade but again I like this knife and it pretty much fits all fit fits my description of you know good survival knife if you've seen how to choose a survival knife video this is a fits all the specifications that I like in a survival knife it's just you know a smaller version and a lightweight you know has a lanyard hole so you can.
