The Type 99 Paratrooper Knife is a versatile tool crafted for the Chinese Airborne Forces. Measuring 32 cm in total length with a 20 cm blade, this knife is made from special high-carbon steel, ensuring both durability and reliability. Its sleek design is not only visually appealing but also highly functional, making it an essential tool for airdrops, ground combat, and field survival.
The knife boasts a solid construction with an insulated handle that prevents electrical conduction. Made from black high-strength engineering plastic, the handle is lightweight yet offers high impact resistance and durability against extreme temperatures and corrosion. Its textured surface provides a comfortable, non-slip grip, enhancing usability in various conditions.
Featuring a sharp single-edge blade, the Type 99 can quickly cut through parachute cords and other ropes. The blade's spine includes serrations capable of sawing through aircraft aluminum and cables. A blood groove reduces the blade's weight to 320 grams and improves rigidity, making it easier to withdraw from a target.
The knife's sheath, made from black high-strength engineering plastic, securely holds the blade with internal padding to prevent movement. It includes a drainage hole and binding rope for secure attachment to the leg or conversion into a spear. The back of the sheath features a sharpening stone and whistle, protected by a fabric cover. A steel insert at the bottom includes a screwdriver, bottle opener, and can opener.
