The KA-BAR TDI Serrated Law Enforcement Knife (SKU #1481) is a specialized tool designed by John Benner, founder of the Tactical Defense Institute. It is engineered as a highly concealable “last option” knife for law enforcement, military, and security personnel, or anyone seeking a robust self-defense backup.

Its distinct pistol-grip design allows for a quick, instinctive draw and a secure, non-slip grip in close-quarter encounters, especially when the dominant hand is occupied or cannot access a firearm. The fully serrated blade is highly effective for quickly cutting through tough, fibrous materials like seat belts, rope, and synthetic webbing, making it an invaluable rescue and utility tool in addition to its defensive role. The included hard plastic sheath and reversible belt clip ensure a deep, concealed, and ambidextrous carry on the pant belt.
