NR-43 H12MF

A clone of a Soviet World War II combat knife known as the NR-43 (Rus. HP-43). The abbreviation NR-43 is decrypted asRazvedchik knife(нож разведчика) 1943. These knives remained in service with the army long after the war. The modern NR-43 from Saro retained the blade profile but the original wooden handle was replaced with a rubber one, as in most SARO field knives. The fully functional double-sided guard has changed its shape slightly, in the original NRs it was S-shaped. The tip of the tang protrudes from the head in the form of a glass breaker. As for the sheath, the NRs from Saro have undergone the same metamorphosis as the rest of the company's model line - they have been equipped with new ABS sheaths with a MOLLE-compatible suspension system. Holes on the edges of the sheath allow them to be sewn (or laced with paracord) to backpacks, tactical vests, carrying systems, also in the handle-down position.
