释义 |
The Warrior knife is a large curved blade fighting knife with a serrated back edge that was first made by Al Mar Knives and Round Eye Knife and Tool (REKAT). Part of the knife's design is credited to martial arts instructor Michael Echanis. DesignThe Warrior knife was designed by custom knife maker, Vietnam combat veteran, and close combat instructor Bob Taylor and Hwarang-do expert Randy Wanner.[1] The blade is distinctive in that the entire rear portion of the blade has a serrated edge, that was added at the suggestion of Wanner's Hwarang-do student Michael D. Echanis and is the reason why the knife has the informal name "Echanis' Warrior".[2][3] Al Mar was an edged-weapons specialist in the U.S. Army Special Forces, a 5th degree black belt in Judo when he started Al Mar Knives in 1978 and began work on the famous and highly sought after "Warrior" knife. In his book, Battle Blades, Greg Walker[3] refers to the Al Mar Warrior as, "perhaps the ultimate in battle-blade design. In addition to the rear serrations used for trapping an opponents' attacking limb, the knife is noted for having an extremely ergonomic handle for use in both the forward and reverse grip. The handle was designed by making a complex study of the human hand through a COBOL computer program and this design has gone on to influence other fighting knives such as Emerson Knives' CQC-8 model.[4] VersionsThe original version was made by Al Mar Knives and had either a polished or blackened blade with either a black or camouflage rubber handle.[3] Round Eye Knife and Tool made a smaller version known as the "Hobbit Warrior" and a folding version known as the "Pocket Hobbit".[5][1] Spyderco knives makes a version of this knife.[2][6]References1. ^1 {{cite book|last=VanCook|first=Jerry|title=Real world self-defense: a guide to staying alive in dangerous times|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=wngbAQAAMAAJ|date=1 November 1999|publisher=Paladin Press|location=Boulder, Colorado|isbn=978-1-58160-044-5|pages=123, 188}} {{Knives}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Warrior knife}}2. ^1 {{cite book|last=Kertzman|first=Joe|title=Knives 2012: The World's Greatest Knife Book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=CQSAiPxe7bEC&pg=PA51|date=25 August 2011|publisher=Krause Publications|location=Iola, Wisconsin|isbn=1-4402-1691-6|page=51}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|last=Walker|first= Greg|title=Battle Blades: A Professional's Guide to Combat/Fighting Knives|location= Boulder, CO|publisher= Paladin Press| ISBN =0-87364-732-7 |year=1993|pages= 138-139}} 4. ^{{Cite journal | last=Ewing| first=Dexter| title=Knives and Lights| journal=Blade Magazine |volume=31 |issue=3 | year=2004 | page=129}} 5. ^{{cite news|date=March 6, 2002 | last=Cheong|first= Sam|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P1-82634915.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140921200713/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P1-82634915.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=September 21, 2014|title=In search of the ultimate blade|newspaper=New Straits Times {{Subscription required|via=HighBeam Research}}}} 6. ^{{cite book|last=Eckstine|first=Roger|title=Shooter's Bible Guide to Knives: A Complete Guide to Hunting Knives, Survival Knives, Folding Knives, Skinning Knives, Sharpeners, and More|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8iCtTOM1_G8C&pg=PT33|date=1 April 2012|publisher=Skyhorse Publishing Inc.|isbn=978-1-62087-309-0|page=33}} 4 : Military knives|Mechanical hand tools|Camping equipment|Goods manufactured in the United States |
