Great design, solid build and excellent value add up to a Mel Pardue designed Rant™ DPT (Drop-Point Tactical). Its N690 blade steel will serve you well and the Kraton® handle affords you great grip every time. Featuring the exclusive BILT™ system, which is the unique assembly of the knife handle to the full tang blade. This patented system not only makes for a stronger knife, but it also allows you the ability to disassemble the knife should you ever need to. The Rant DPT comes with a ballistics nylon sheath complete with protective insert.
Blade Length: 4.48"
Blade Thickness: 0.139"
Blade Material: N690 Stainless Steel
Blade Hardness: 58-60HRC

Nice looking knife, Joe! I have been contemplating one of those for a while. Saw it at a store by the house and really liked the way it felt. Let me know how well it keeps an edge, will you?
BTW, Happy Birthday! Hope it was a good one!!
