ABOUT THE GLAUCA G1: This knife is an evolution of the original Glauca model, built to meet the rigorous demands of elite law enforcement professionals. The GLAUCA G1 has been meticulously crafted for the elite GSG9 Bundespolizei* special unit and has been officially adopted for their use. The GLAUCA G1 is a versatile tool tailored for tactical and rescue operations as well as being an excellent EDC.
BLADE: The GLAUCA G1 boasts a blade made from premium N690 steel, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and high carbon content, ensuring superior strength and uniformity. Its classic clip point shape and flat grind provide outstanding cutting performance and precision, perfect for demanding tasks. Plus, the blade offers two easy opening options: an integrated flipper and thumb studs for quick, one-handed deployment.
HANDLE: The GLAUCA G1 features a robust, generous-sized handle designed for maximum functionality and comfort. Made from anticorodal anodized aluminum with tactical mud coloring, it ensures a secure grip in all conditions. The open-backed design allows for easy cleaning and maintenance. The GLAUCA G1 has a versatile three-position clip. This clip is a "bridge" clip that wraps around the end so the knife sits deeper in your pocket for a more discreet carry.
TOOLS: The GLAUCA G1 is equipped with several specialized tools to enhance its functionality:
-
Stainless steel marlin spike: Locks in the open position, perfect for untangling ropes, netting, paracord, etc.
-
Folding rescue tool: Allows for quick emergency cuts to free an injured person from their clothing and serves as an excellent belt cutter.
-
Tungsten carbide glass breaker: Ensures you're prepared for emergency situations requiring the breaking of glass.
LOCK: For ultimate safety and reliability, the GLAUCA G1 uses a solid liner lock mechanism, enhanced by an additional manually operated locking system. This advanced locking system ensures the blade remains securely in place during heavy use.
