Why a non-metallic knife? A GPR
knife in a stitched Kydextm sheath is lightweight and canbe carried very
comfortably. In a neck sheath, it can be tucked away under shirt
or jacket and forgotten until needed. Granger Knives GPR knives
are carried by some federal agents for use in covert operations where a
steel knife would be exposed by a metal detector. For this reason we sell GPR knives only
to law enforcement and military personell. GPR knives appeal
to undercover police officers for the same reason. The GPR knife
is intended for use as a secondary or covert means of self defense.
It is not intended to be a utility knife, though some of our customers
do use it that way. Although GPR s strength and edge-holding ability
far exceeds Zyteltm, Delrintm, G-10, micarta, etc., regular use means
regular sharpening.
