Tekna Wilderness Edge Survival Knife

Made in the United States and issued to air force pilots in Japan and Poland, the fixed-blade Tekna Wilderness Edge survival knife system contains a variety of items in its hollow handle and sheath designed to see its user through a life-threatening calamity.

he quick-release sheath converts to a fishing pole with a reel containing 40 feet of 40-lb. braided line, and it stores a 17-piece fishing tackle kit. Other contents include: a nail for punching holes in leather and canvas for lacing; two safety pins; a thigh/gear strap; a signal mirror; a small-animal snare; a spear/arrowhead; a liquid-filled compass with lanyard; a magnesium fire starter stick; a ceramic knife-sharpener rod; a 10-page survival guide fan card; and a drilling thumbscrew for wood and light metals.
