Details
Medford Knife & Tool developed the Tactical Service Tanto series to put several new twists on a thousand year old design from Japan. The TST1 redefines the small Tanto design, so specialized for piercing, by complimenting the tip with a recurve blade. The recurve aids in slashing and chopping and forward rake opens new doors of use when reverse gripped. The TST-1 is a hybrid specialized knife design that translates intuitively in the hands of Westerners due to its coaxial grip and tip (Basically, the tip is in line with the grip of the hand, as with most knives in the West).
