Columbia River Ultima Combination Edge Today's tactical fixed blade knives still resemble the first bronze age daggers of 4000 years ago especially in their handle design. Michael Martinez inventor of the Merlin knife deployment system didn't start out to redesign the fixed blade but he explains "We tested over 400 knives with the Merlin system and I kept noticing how many knives even expensive ones didn't feel right didn't have a grip that gave both control and comfort in the four fundamental tactical grips." Michael's design firm Group Design Inc. reached out to a team of medical specialists for the answer and developed scientific criteria for handles using the services of ergonomic experts kinesthesiologists and a designer of surgical tools. They determined that the ideal knife handle would have 23 points of contact with the hand. Their Ultima achieves 22 of those contact points with its unique patent pending handle. The injection molded black Zytel scales feature over 70 triangular grip segments separated by sipes or "ooze grooves" which channel away water mud and oil. Horizontal grooves are placed under the fingertips for optimum feel. The scientific placement and crisp edges of these segments results in the best possible contact for Conventional Reverse Conventional Ice Pick and Reverse Ice Pick tactical grips. Because tactical knifes are inevitably used as pry bars Michael's team created a butt pry tip as an extension of the blade tang with a rounded tip that is equally useful opening a junction box or breaking a window. The Ultima's 6.75" full tang blade is 1.4116 stainless steel with a light bead blast non-reflective finish. It features a modified Tanto shape dual taper ground for maximum strength. Tactical Sheath. The Ultima's custom black Cordura/Zytel sheath has an injection molded liner. An integral belt loop gives conventional high carry plus a removable adjustable drop leg extender a

I just got this knife yesterday and it is my first fixed blade, the knife is rather large almost 12" long but it is very well balanced when considering its size and that it weighs 9.4 ounces, I myself think that it is a little heavier on the handle end. The veff serrations are very nice and the cut is a lot better than the traditonal triple point serrations. The zytel handle on this knife is very well designed, it is easy to maintain grip, also on the back of the handle is a "butt pry tip" I have not tried this out but I imagine that if it won't help pry anything then it will at least serve as a good glass breaker. The sheath allows for multiple carry options and holds the knife in place very well, even with both security straps unsnapped and shaking the knife upside down it doesn't move at all, the only downside to that is that the sheath leaves a mark on one side of the blade when replaced/removed but the mark isn't permant. I just put a light coat of wd-40 to make sure it stays that way. Overall an excellent knife and so far I would reccomend it to anyone I know.
