The service men and women of the coalition forces in the Middle East and Afghanistan require cutting tools that can stand up to the harsh demands of the desert. Our Carson Desert Tactical Folders have been developed specifically to blend into the desert environment. Our two special M16 Zytel® models feature our super rigid InterFrame build with 420J2 stainless steel liners, threaded stainless steel back spacers, and Desert Camo pattern Zytel scales. Blades are non-reflective bead-blast finished AUS 4 stainless steel. They blend and almost disappear in the desert. Blade length: 3 1/2" Open length: 8 1/4" Steel: AUS 4 w/ non-reflective desert camo coating Handle: Desert Camo pattern Zytel scales
