When it comes to combative knife design, there is no shortage of opinion out there. Whether they’re martial artists, tactical trainers, military veterans, or simply folks who think they know better, everyone seems to have strong convictions as to the form of the perfect fighting knife. So how does the would-be knife buyer separate wheat from chaff? Experience.
All the best knife designs come from expert knife users. If someone doesn’t have an intimate understanding of the application of the tool, his or her opinions are only theory. And when it comes to edged-weapon design, the keys to achieving that understanding are intensive training and real-world operational experience. J. Kelly McCann, the designer of the Spyderco Canis, has both of those in spades.
