Magnus Sheaths
The Fire-Sheath
Benefits of the Firesheath (shown on a Northman)
Having the ability to start a fire is part of being responsible and prepared. If you carry Amtac Blades you will always have the tools to do this in your pocket.
A ferro rod is molded into the side of the Kydex sheath. The back of the sheath is covered with two pieces of soft velcro, creating a very thin pocket. You can use this pocket to store a micro ziplock bag with tinder, or some cash, a key, etc..
The Amtac Blades MagnaCut Magnus
The MagnaCut Magnus is a full-sized combative fixed blade knife specifically designed to be worn on your belt, other strong side.
This version of the Amtac Blades Magnus Non-Serrated is made from MagnaCut. MagnaCut steel is significantly tougher than M390, and is slightly better at corrosion resistance.
This blade has been optimized to provide the correct balance between tip strength and thrusting ability (myself and friends that have been involved in the testing have stabbed the prototype of this blade through a lot of different test media).
To make the blade more versatile we kept the spine of the blade sharp so that you can strike the Ferro rod with the spine of the blade instead of the edge.
The blade, firesheath, trainer, and storage sheath are included.
Upgrades to the Magnus
We are always striving to make our blades better, and after receiving feedback from some of the best blade guys in the industry, we decided to roll out the MagnaCut Magnus. The MagnaCut Magnus features a 5-inch flat ground blade with a swedge starting 1.5 inches from the handle. This blade geometry allows for great thrusting ability and great strength. Doing this grind also shaved .8 ounces off of the blade and gives it a much faster feel in hand. The 1.5 inches of spine directly forward of the handle has a semi-sharp 90° angle to facilitate better striking of a ferro rod and other backcountry tasks.
