		The Warrior combat knife is based on decades old models from Al Mar 
		Knives. This version is both modern and brilliantly designed. The main 
		differences from the old models are materials, amount of serrations on 
		the top side of the blade and the guard curves in the opposite 
		direction. 
		 
		Spyderco Info: The Warrior fixed blade is one of the world’s most 
		intriguing combat knives. Based largely on the groundbreaking research 
		of close-combat icon Michael Echanis, the original Warrior was a radical 
		design intended primarily for use with reverse-grip tactics inspired by 
		the Korean martial art of HwaRangDo. Produced in limited quantities by 
		the late Al Mar and later resurrected by the martial artist Bob Taylor 
		and Echnais contemporary Randy Wanner, it is one of the most coveted 
		combat knives ever made. 
		 
		The Spyderco Warrior faithfully retains all the salient features of the 
		original, while adding a number of performance enhancements. Its 
		revitalization happened at the request of our Israeli customer, Guy 
		Rafaeli. 
		 
		Ground from rust-free austenitic H-1 steel, it possesses the same 
		differential hardness properties of a clay-tempered Samurai sword, 
		giving it extreme cutting power and shock resistance. Its full-tang 
		construction and textured handle scales provide a superior grip and edge 
		orientation, maximizing the knife’s effectiveness when employed with its 
		signature tactics. The sheath is a black ballistic nylon snap-closed 
		sheath with Molle-vest attachment capability.
