The Ka-Bar TDI Investigator Law Enforcement Knife (1493) of American production is a light and extremely ergonomic tool for self-defense in CQB (Close Quarter Battle) situations, designed by John Benner (founder of the Tactical Defense Institute) with the safety of uniformed services officers in mind.
The TDI Investigator Law Enforcement knife (1493) from Ka-Bar, designed and signed by the Tactical Defense Institute in Ohio, is a small, so-called last-chance knife, with a short handle. The knife is made of one piece of AUS 8A stainless steel, three millimeters thick. The knife blade has a Drop Point shape, has a high hollow cut and a plain cutting edge. In order to eliminate light reflections and protect the steel against external factors, the blade is covered with a black, matte, ceramic protective coating.
The handle of the Investigator Law Enforcement knife has a curved handle geometry typical of TDI knives (the drawn knife is gripped like a gun), making it easier to draw and operate the tool in a tight work environment. The handle linings are ergonomic and provide a significant grip, made of glass fiber reinforced nylon - this material is available under the trade name Zytel®. Additional corrugation on the back of the handle provides very good support for the thumb, increasing the stiffness of the grip and the strength of the thrusts.
The knife comes with a stiff and extremely durable sheath, made of polymer and adapted to carry the knife on a belt via a belt clip.
