ANV Knives M311 Spelter

The M311 SPELTER knife is developed in cooperation with members of forward air observation units, close protection teams and special air operations. Other members of the military and security community contributed to its design. During the development of the knife, they focused on using their experience and requirements. Thanks to this unique collaboration, they had the opportunity to really test the quality of the chosen materials, the design and the overall construction of the product. The knife has been tested for many years in extreme conditions and different climates, including hot, dry and humid parts of Asia, as well as freezing regions beyond the Arctic Circle. The blade is made of Swedish Elmax steel. Easy, reliable and safe carrying of the knife is ensured by the self-locking kydex sheath, which has holes for attachment to the Blade-tech system, allowing it to be carried on both MOLLE and PALS tactical straps. The knife passage hole allows easy and quick maintenance of the sheath. Along with the kydex holster, a sling is included for easy belt carry.

Extremely durable DLC coating

High-quality steel extends through the entire body of the knife to the base of the handle, which has a tip for breaking glass. The blade has an extremely durable DLC (Diamond-like Carbon) coating that minimizes reflections, prevents corrosion and gives the steel surface excellent sliding properties. The handle is produced by 3D machining from Micarta, which thanks to its shape and grooves fits easily in the hand and gives the knife a secure grip in any situation. The knife is equipped with a safety paracord loop that prevents it from falling out of your hand when cutting. The whole structure is held together by a combination of fixed threaded sleeves and four M5 screws, also with DLC coating.
