Today, the modern military force may need more than one version of the same piece of equipment to satisfy different requirements. For example, a standard issue stainless steel scuba knife would not be suitable for use in operations where non magnetic properties are required. The MPK-Ti was designed to meet the requirements of the Navy SEAL's and Explosive Ordnance Disposal Units. It has also been adopted and issued by the United States Marine Corps Recon personnel. Titanium was selected for the blade based on the unique combination of properties inherent to the metal. The result is a light weight, non magnetic, non corrosive, and multi functional
knife that can be used in all environments from the tropics to the arctic. Because of the proprietary hardening process, it holds its edge and is easily field sharpened. It survived continuously under seawater four years without any signs of rust or corrosion. The hytrel/kevlar handle is so tough it can survive in any adverse environment and still be used to pound nails. Built for the human hand, the
handle is ergonomically designed for long-term comfort. The MPK has been proven by nine years of vigorous military usage. Put it away wet or dirty, this knife will last a lifetime.
