Extrema Ratio Fulcrum Bayonet NFG Black Forpene, Black N690 knife (04.1000.0300/BLK)

Fulcrum Bayonet NFG Black, the Fulcrum knife is a milestone in the design of multi-function knives. It was used en masse in Afghanistan as equipment for the Italian Nibbo mission. It was developed in cooperation with COMALP (Comando Truppe Alpine) Italian Alpine Unit, as a project to renew the individual soldier's equipment.

Based on the successful design, ER developed a bayonet version of this design, extremely versatile and strong, able to withstand loads in excess of 150 kilograms. The NFG (No Fixing Gears) version lacks the attachment to the rifle barrel.

N690 - corrosion-resistant, high-carbon 1.07% (C), martensitic chromium steel 17.30% (Cr) with molybdenum 1.10% (Mo), vanadium 0.10% (V) and cobalt 1.50% (Co) for structural uniformity. It features exceptionally high corrosion resistance and long edge retention. One of the best tool steels in the world today. Achieves a hardness of 57-60 HRC. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.

Blade - modified Tanto with a thickness of 6.3 mm. The blade is coated with black BURNISHING MIL-C-13924.Combo partially serrated blade is derived with Flat Grind. Double finger guard double-sided hilt protects the hand from slipping on the blade. A hole in the wedge allows you to create with a specially shaped sheath effective wire cutters.

Combo Edge - (partially serrated) used in tactical, rescue and survival knives. Consisting of alternating one large and two small teeth, this pattern increases the length of the cutting edge by up to 24% over a straight blade. Ideal for cutting hard materials, plastics and fibrous materials.

Handle - full-size 5" long FH (Full Handle) type used in assault knives. Textured, non-slip grips with rubber-like properties. Made of Forprene thermoplastic elastomer (flexible return, softness, chemical resistance), guarantee a firm grip even with wet hands. Steel head with an enlarged oval hole (lanyard hole) for pulling a lanyard or safety line, can act as a hammer / glass breaker and more.

Sheath - multifunctional made of abrasion-resistant, waterproof nylon with a hard plastic insert. Mounted to the insert is a steel tip that allows you to transform the knife into a wire cutter.
