Al Mar Knives for 2012

Thursday, January 12th, 2012

Al Mar Knives has been a mainstay brand since for over 30 years. They will be showing a few products at SHOT Show that should be of interest to SSD readers.

Eagle Heavy Duty
Improving upon the linerless Eagle Ultralight, the Eagle Heavy Duty incorporates heat treated skeletonized stainless liners and steps up to G-10 scales. All of the other features remain, including the light weight pioneered in the Ultralight series: the Eagle Heavy Duty weighs only 1 oz. more than the Eagle Ultralight @ 3 ounces.

SERE 2000 & Mini SERE 2000 with OD or Digital Camo Scales
If you’re as old as me, you’ll remember the AMK SERE knife. It’s still the same great knife made famous in the 1980s at the JFKSWCS SERE School, but now it’s available in OD green or Digital Camouflage scales.

Plus, their whole line, with knives for the job, the field, and the kitchen.
