Carson Desert Tactical Folder 9, 8 cm

The service men and women of the coalition forces in the Middle East and Afghanistan require cutting tools that can stand up to the harsh demands of the desert. Our Carson Desert Tactical Folders have been developed specifically to blend into the desert environment.

Our two special M16 Zytel® models feature our super rigid InterFrame build with 420J2 stainless steel liners, threaded stainless steel back spacers, and Desert Camo pattern Zytel scales. Blades are non-reflective bead-blast finished AUS 4 stainless steel. They blend and almost disappear in the desert.

M16®-14ZSF Special Forces. Our tactical SF models feature two Carson Flippers, resulting in a true hilt when the blade is opened. Our Big Dog Zytel version has a 9.8 cm blade and full-size handle with a pommel which is exceptionally powerful in tactical situations. Weight is a hefty 179 g.

Each M16-14ZSF and M16-14D comes with two stainless steel Teflon-plated clothing/gear clips, extra screws and a Torx® tool, allowing four-position carry on belts or webbing- tip up, tip down, left or right. Please note: These knives are not designed for tip-up in-pocket carry.

All models feature our exclusive patented* AutoLAWKSTM safety, which automatically turns the folders into fixed blades when the blade is opened and locked.

One-hand opening and closing is quick and smooth, the result of precision tolerances and Teflon® bearings at the blade pivot. The dual ambidextrous thumb studs with checkered surfaces provide instant access in any circumstance.

All blades have Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-PointTM Serrated edges.
