NRS Pilot Knife
The NRS Pilot Knife is used by both rescue professionals and recreational boaters. Not only does its unique design attract attention, but the sheath also provides convenient access and it releases the knife when you need it most. The Pilot is an excellent knife for freshwater boating and rescue. (For saltwater use, choose the NRS Titanium Pilot Knife) The cutting edge has smooth and serrated sections and a rope-cut hook. The knife's blunt tip design will protect against unintentional puncture of your gear or yourself! As another safety feature, the blade is only sharpened on one edge, and along with the blunt tip, helps prevent injury in a tight rescue situation. The unique sheath firmly locks the knife in place and only lets it go when you squeeze both sides of the release. The comfortable, rubberized grip wraps around the contoured handle, giving you maximum control of the blade. The sheath clip attaches firmly to a PFD lash tab. The handle has a built-in glass-breaking tip on the end. If you are looking for a more compact version, try the NRS Co-Pilot Knife.
