The Tie-Breaker CQC is a design collaboration between Kevin Tomas of Applied Defense Concepts and knife-maker Blake Sudo, of Hammerhead knife works.  It's intended to be used in close-quarters, entangled fighting

PURPOSE-DRIVEN
At the top of the tang, the glove-sized retention ring ensures the tool is almost impossible to strip from the user's hand and works to keep it secured while deploying a firearm.    The top of the ring is squared off, indented, and gimped to allow for multiple indexing positions. 

The modified drop-point has a reinforced tip that allows the bypassing of thick clothing, effortlessly.  The option for a sharpened back-edge expands the knife’s capabilities, allowing for devastating retraction cuts typically seen with Pikal knives.  At three inches, the blade’s length is perfect for both concealment and tactical use.  

100% CUSTOM MADE FROM PREMIUM MATERIALS
Every Tie-Breaker is crafted by  US Veteran, Jared Grant of Legacy Blades, in North Carolina, USA.  The 80CRV2 premium steel blade used in every blade makes each knife strong and ready for work! Each blade has undergone a thorough heat treatment for superior toughness, and is protected by a handsome cerekote finish.  The scales are unique and contoured by hand. No knife is the same..  Included is a quality kydex sheath with a HLR Discreet Gear Clip which allow for carry with or without a belt! A length of paracord for neck carry and both sheaths are equipped with riggers bands to wear the knife horizontally on a belt.

TRAINER INCLUDED
A synthetic trainer will be included in every box. With your trainer, you will get second kydex sheath with identical HLR mounts. Designed around ADC’s Combative Edge knife fighting system, we felt this knife would be incomplete without a training tool that would allow the end-user to perform solo practice or spar with.

To take our trainer to the NEXT LEVEL, we have also included a special marking blade kit in every package. This industrial-strength kit includes a marking-surface strip and a special marking chalk. Installing it turns your trainer into a “Simunitions Blade”, allowing you and your partners to cut through the BS and and get visual feedback on who is getting tagged and where. This kind of training provides valuable data to increase skill and survivability.
