Jim Hammond is an active outdoorsman as well as a custom knifemaker and Knifemakers' Guild member. When his diving and whitewater friends pointed out the need for a greatly improved multipurpose fixed blade, he developed his custom A.B.C. (All Bases Covered) knife/sheath system. The CRKT production version is faithful to Jim's designs and priced to put it within reach of everyone who depends on a knife in or near the water. The blunt-tipped A.B.C. Aqua is designed to fill all the needs of the scuba diver and white water enthusiast in a single knife. The bottom hollow ground Razor-Sharp edge is suited to fine cutting tasks. The spine incorporates a Triple-PointTM Serrated edge ideal for rapid rough cutting through cord, nets, fishing line, kelp, and for safe release of whitewater entanglements. The blunt point won't pierce air compartments if accidentally dropped. It is also an indispensable work tool for swift water rescue teams, paramedics, and law enforcement.The blade is a full-tang skeletonized design of premium AUS 8 stainless steel. For maximum corrosion resistance, the steel is first mirror polished to close the pores, and then black titanium nitride coated. The finger choils are heavily friction grooved for sure grip.The A.B.C. Aqua comes with two sets of injection molded Zytel® scales, in black and high visibility yellow, both with an aggressive texture for grip. A tool is also included to allow you to quickly switch scales, which are held in place by corrosion resistant Torx® fasteners. The Zytel sheath with dual attachment panels and black stainless spring steel clip allows eight carry modes and countless variations. Black finish brass Chicago screws allow adjustment of the knife compression fit into the sheath. Equally important, they are used for a multitude of attachment orientations: on diving buoyancy compensators and pocket flaps, webbing, with dive leg straps, on PFDs, or with a neck cord. Strong.
