This is an early Strider BD Dive Tool, fixed blade knife. This is a knife designed for heavy duty use. Although originally designed as a dive tool, it would also make a great hunting, camping or combat knife. The blade features both a blunt pry tip, as well as an aggressive sawtooth spine. The blade is ATS-34 with what I believe is a Cerakote finish. The handle is OD Green paracord wrapped, ending in a lanyard. The heavy duty Special Operations Equipment (SOE) nylon sheath has a Kydex liner, and accessory pouch. The pouch can be used to store a small tool kit, fire starter, etc. Even a folding knife can fit in the pouch. The sheath is both MOLLE and belt compatible. Designed at the request of the military unit for a heavy duty tool while diving, the BD Dive tool can be just as versatile and handy on dry land. This knife was previously owned, and is in excellent condition. It has seen some very light use, as evidenced by the fine surface micro scratches and sheath marks on the Cerakote finish. These really do not show up in the photos, as they are light and only seen in the correct light and angle. No case.
