M16®-14 Desert Big Dog - Tan, Tanto, AutoLAWKS®, Combo Edge

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.

M16^®-14D Desert Big Dog has an aluminum frame M16 in desert camo. The contoured handles of 6061 T6 aluminum are hard anodized Desert Tan. The 3.875" (98 mm) AUS 8 stainless steel blade, chosen for edge retention and durability, receives a highly corrosion-resistant Desert Tan non-reflective titanium nitride coating. It has a Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point^™ Serrated edge to cut through nets, webbing and vegetation quickly.

Each M16-14D comes with two stainless steel Teflon-plated clothing/gear clips, extra screws and a Torx^® tool, allowing four-position carry on belts or webbing— tip up, tip down, left or right. Please note: These knives are not designed for tip-up in-pocket carry.

It also features our exclusive patented* AutoLAWKS^™ safety, which automatically turns the folder into a fixed blades when the blade is opened and locked.

One-hand opening and closing is quick and smooth, the result of precision tolerances and Teflon^® bearings at the blade pivot. The dual ambidextrous thumb studs with checkered surfaces provide instant access in any circumstance. *U.S. Patent Nos. 5,596,808 and 7,437,822
