ABOUT THE REQUIEMExtrema Ratio's REQUIEM is another in their series of light weight fixed blades. This is a tactical/multi-purpose knife/sheath that has been streamlined. This makes the REQUIEM a plus when you need to consider weight. Even with the streamlining, the Requiem is a strong blade.

BLADE: The REQUIEM has a well designed spear point blade sharpened on one side. Has jimping that extends into the handle so you can exert extra pressure and/or better control. To further decrease the weight, without sacrificing strength, there is a fuller (blood groove) on each side. This REQUIEM has a stone washed blade.

HANDLE: The REQUIEM's handle has a slender, streamlined shape. It still provides a good grip while reducing the total knife weight. Has a “rubber” like feel and texture to insure you have a positive grip even with wet hands. Lower guard (with a lanyard hole) to protect your hand. Made of Forprene.

SHEATH: The distinctive, light weight Aspis nylon sheath is also streamlined to decrease weight and allow it to be attached to a MOLLE system. Has an easily activated sheath lever for a quick knife release. Also has two multi-positioned clips so your REQUIEM is easily inserted in MOLLE loops. The REQUIEM sheath is attached a new way. To attach it to the MOLLE system, you open one of the clips (the one towards the tip of the sheath) and remove it. Then insert the sheath INSIDE the MOLLE system, inside the stripes of the MOLLE system. Then fix again the removed clip on the sheath and adjust both clips to the MOLLE system. The sheath and clips are made to only work with a MOLLE system.
