About the product:
Glock Survival Knive can also be used as a bayonet, by engaging a socket in the pommel (covered by a plastic cap) into a bayonet adapter that can be fitted to the Steyr AUG rifle.
The knives were developed in close cooperation with the special forces Jagdkommando (lit. Hunting Command) of the Austrian Army and are suitable for throwing. Glock knives are sturdy enough to break windows or ammuntion boxes, requirements by the Armed Forces among many others.
Knives have clip point blades made of spring steel with a hardness of 55 HRC and are phosphate-treated. Spring steel offers a high yield strength for good impact resistance and flexibility but low corrosion resistance.
The grips and sheaths are made of Glock-polymer and are available in the colors olive, sand, black and since 2016 in new colors - Battle Field Green, Dark Earth, Grey. The upper crossguard is bent forward to protect the hand against injuries. It can be used as thumb rest or as a bottle opener.
The polymer sheath features a retention clip that secures the knife against loss, a belt clip for attaching the knife to a belt and a drainage opening at the bottom.
Glock currently manufactures two models of knives:
The Field Knife 78 (Feldmesser 78), which is a classic field knife, with a 165-millimetre (6.5 in) blade, 290-millimetre (11 in) overall length and weighs 206 g (7.3 oz)
The Survival Knife 81 (Feldmesser 81), which has the same overall dimensions as the Field Knife 78 with the addition of saw-teeth on the back of the blade and weighs 202 g (7.1 oz).
