The Escort daggers are made from a solid stack of three different types of aerospace grade carbon fiber:
- Outer Layer: 3k 2xt twill weave fabric, that diagonal pattern we all love
- Internal Layers: Internally this knife is made up of a mix of uni-directional weave along with something called lightening strike. Lightening strike is carbon fiber woven with strands of aluminum, using this material keeps the daggers visible when going through a metal detector.
The blades are made up of 12 layers of carbon, while the handles are made up of a total of 36 layers of carbon fiber. Each piece is handmade in the USA.
Please keep in mind that carbon fiber does not offer a super sharp blade on the knife, it's not really meant for cutting, but rather for self-defense/stabbing or as an art/decorative knife...or even a beautiful letter opener. The blade does not hold an edge, but can be "sharpened' by simply using a sandpaper or even a sharpening stone.
