In extreme close-quarter encounters where a suspect is attempting to take an officer's handgun, or an officer cannot access his handgun, the TDI knife is available as a "last option" knife. When worn on the pant belt the entire unit - knife and sheath - is well concealed.
Designed as an “offhand” knife that draws like a pistol, the reversible sheath can be worn on either the right or left side of the officer’s pant belt. Made with a non-reflective powder coated AUS 8 stainless steel blade and a textured black Zytel handle, this lightweight knife is paired with a hard plastic black friction release sheath and a black stainless steel TDI belt clip.
Designed by John Benner, founder and owner of Tactical Defense Institute. Hard plastic sheath and reversible black metal belt clip (1480CLIP) included. Fits maximum belt height of 1.75", width of 1.25" and thickness of 0.25".
