Dark Ops Black Raven

The Black Raven - DOH101

A knife designed in Honor of the "Ravens", those legendary airmen who went into Laos in the late sixties to take the fight to the enemy in their own back yard! They flew missions into communist territory without the acknowledgment of their government, without the knowledge of their families and with no recognition for a job heroically done. The Black Raven is all Dark Ops, with CTV2™ steel and a brutally strong tanto point design. Features a similar handle to the Basal Shadow, but is optimized for airborne crews who need a blade strong enough to cut through aluminum, sharp enough to smash through canopies and small enough to fit the body in cramped cockpits. 100% made in America! Available in Carbon Black Titanium CarboNitride (TiCN) vacuum deposited finish. Sheaths adaptable for belt, vest, thigh, calf and outpack carry!

About Dark Ops Knives

Dark Ops Knives are made from a proprietary hybrid alloy of Chromium, Cobalt, Tungsten, Vanadium, and Molybdenum with surgical grade stainless steel! CTV2 offers both strength and edge holding ability that is unrivaled! Zone selective cryogenic hardening allows for medical grade edge sharpness while avoiding the brittleness of high Rockwell hardness!

The American Serviceman deserves the best. It isn't often that a Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or Marine needs his knife in a lethal engagement. But should you run out of ammo and need to fight through the mob, these are the tools to use! They are considered by many to be the most effective edged combat weapons in existence today. Dark Ops Knives feature brutally rugged construction designed to perform in the gravest extremes. They do not contain complicated locking mechanisms that plug with sand or toy like cosmetic features. The blades are nearly double the thickness of imitators. The locking system has been proven in combat and is as strong as the CTV2 steel itself, with the pressure not born by small plunge locks, thumb studs, or unreliable liner locks. Made by operators for operators in the greatest country in the world!

By the time you are using your knife and not your rifle or sidearm, things have already gone to hell. Dark Ops knives are designed to retain maximum grip and leverage when covered with hydraulic fluid or blood. Dark Ops mil-tested handle designs contain ground quartz inserts for maximum grip, aided by substantial finger grooves that orient the knife in the dark. The blades are long and sharp enough to penetrate both airplane skins and Comm-bloc body-armor.
