6H9S 65G
Description
Civilian variant of a military combat knife with index 6H9 (Russian6х9) introduced into the equipment since 2014 as part of the Ratnik equipment complex. Even though the 6H9S is a knife that does not require a permit, it has a typical military ABS sheath with a MOLLE-compatible suspension system. Holes on the edges of the sheath allow them to be sewn (i.e. laced with paracord) to backpacks, tactical vests, carrying systems, also when placed with the handle down. The knife also has a military-style guard. A dagger blade, straight, with a partially flat grind and a partially ground spine on the tip (the latter is typical of Russian military knives and is intended for opening ammunition zincs). The knife is released in three material variants: 65G carbon steel (with black oxide for protection against corrosion), AUS6 stainless steel and H12MF steel, which is the Russian analogue of D2.
