Ka-Bar TDI Law Enforcement Knife Review
The Ka-Bar TDI Law Enforcement knife is becoming a trusted companion by police officers and military personnel all over the world. Designed by a police officer with hopes of helping other law enforcement officials, the TDI Law Enforcement knife is not only cool looking but extremely practical. Here are my thoughts on the knife:
What I like about the knife:
1. The hard plastic friction sheath is designed to fit a police officer’s pant belt and be mounted on the left side. The pistol grip style handle allows you to easily remove the knife from it’s sheath in seconds flat when you’re in a squeeze.
2. In an emergency situation the last thing you need is a dull knife. Ka-Bar uses high quality AUS 8A stainless steel, which holds a great edge. My knife came razor sharp out of the box and it can be re-sharpened by using a 15 degree angle.
3. Ka-Bar gives you many different options for handle colors and blade styles. You can get a brown, green, black, or orange handle with a tanto or drop point that is plain, half or fully serrated.
4. With a length of 3 and 11/16″, the blade is legal to carry with you almost anywhere. It is large enough to be a workhorse utility knife.
5. The jimping or thumb grooves on the back of the handle help you to pull the knife from it’s sheath even more quickly. They also help you make precise or quick cuts when you don’t have time to waste.
What I didn’t like:
I wish that Ka-Bar would make a much larger version for camping or clearing brush. I thoroughly enjoy the style of this knife.
Overall:
With suggested retail values ranging from $52 to $65, the Ka-Bar TDI Law Enforcement Knife is a great value for the money. This knife was made to stand up to the rigors of law enforcement duties, so I feel confident that it will serve you well.
