Folding knife made according to specifications requested by the Italian Army unit 185th RAO (Regiment for Target Acquisition) and currently in service with the same unit. The service version differs from the civilian one only by the complete absence of writings or logos on the blade.
HISTORICAL NOTES ON THE UNIT:
The 185th RAO of the "Folgore" is a unit with ancient traditions, yet relatively new in its current form. It was established on 3 April 2000 following the reorganization of the 185th Paratroopers Artillery Regiment. Based in Livorno, it is an atypical artillery unit currently included within the Special Forces framework.
Composed entirely of volunteer personnel, the 185th RAO selects its members through physical tests and a qualification course structured in modules of increasing difficulty. The tasks assigned to RAO operators are numerous and highly sensitive: they involve gathering information on enemy targets and relaying it to command. More generally, this can be described as reconnaissance in sensitive areas.
"It is therefore clear," the Army emphasizes, "that the activity of the acquisition operator takes place mainly in hostile territory, in small self-sufficient teams operating in isolation."
RAO paratroopers are specialists in infiltration and exfiltration techniques and are able to operate in the field for up to 8–10 days without external resupply. They know how to avoid capture, escape and evade from enemy-controlled areas and, above all, how to identify, define and assess strategically relevant targets. Since 2002, the year of its reorganization, detachments of the 185th Regiment have operated in all major operational theaters: from the Balkans to Afghanistan and Iraq. In these areas they mainly carry out medium- and long-range reconnaissance and surveillance activities within the area of responsibility of the Italian contingent.

The handle is sturdy and comfortable; the reversible, wraparound clip serves as a useful and comfortable thumb rest in the “reverse grip” position. The handle scale is solid with the characteristic recessed surfaces designed to engage the opening pins without them protruding from the knife’s closed profile. The blade, available in either a drop-point or tanto configuration, features a flat grind and, like the BF1, a particularly thick and durable tip. The blade locking mechanism is the proven LINER-LOCK, supplemented by a manually operated safety mechanism protected by a guard.

Rockstead - Higo II knife F-HTI-ZDP - ZDP-189 & Titanium - PRIVATE COLLECTION - knife
PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED KNIFE, FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION
* Origin: Acquired from a private seller, previously purchased
* Condition: Overall in excellent condition
* Availability on the market: Hard to find
* Sharpening: Factory-sharpened
* Marks on blade: A few small abrasions visible against the light on the mirror finish
* Marks on handle: None
* Box: Present and complete
* Sheath: /
* Manuals, Certificates, and Warranties: Present
* Inspected and Certified by our in-house laboratoryThe Rockstead HIGO II in titanium is not simply a high-end folding knife: it is the ultimate embodiment of Japanese philosophy applied to cutting, where every detail is pushed to the limits of perfection.
The minimalist, flawless titanium handle serves as a counterpoint to a ZDP-189 blade hardened to extreme hardness and finished with an almost unreal mirror polish. The result is not merely aesthetic: it is a living surface, capable of gliding through material with a smoothness and continuity that few knives in the world can offer.
Rockstead’s proprietary convex geometry does more than just cut: it separates, controls, and guides. It is a blade designed for those who recognize the difference between extreme sharpness and true long-term efficiency.
The HIGO II is an object for connoisseurs, where tolerances, treatments, and finishes are not mere technical specifications, but part of a precise language.

The brand's philosophy revolves around unique and functional designs with distinctive and often aggressive aesthetics, with ideas that originate from the operational world and the designer's personal vision. The blades are made from high-quality steel, and many models feature special details such as custom finishes and ergonomic handles.

* Checked and Certified by our in-house laboratoryThe Silent Hero was designed by Anton Du Plessis, then Head of Operations for the Silent Heroes Foundation Special Interdiction Unit, whose mission was to fight poaching in South Africa. This knife needed to be durable, versatile, and able to withstand field use — requirements that shaped the design of both the blade and the handle. It is built to handle heavy-duty tasks.
The ergonomic handle ensures a secure grip. The hole in the lower guard branch can be used to attach the knife to a stick or pole when needed.
The blade features a finger choil that allows for a firm grip and precise control for detailed cuts. Its recurved tip design makes the knife ideal for slicing while providing extra tip strength. This makes it perfect for bushcraft, survival, and tactical applications.
The black leather sheath is robust and complements the knife perfectly.

Designed by James Williams, it is a specialized tool intended for military personnel and special forces operators. James developed this design to meet the specific demands of coalition forces abroad, who needed a more powerful tactical tool than his already widely used Hissatsu from CRKT.
Historically, military swords have been designed according to the combat environment. Long swords, such as the English broadsword and the Japanese katana, were primarily used in open battlefields. Enclosed or confined combat required shorter swords, such as the sailor's machete and the Japanese wakizashi, close in size to the Hisshou.

Notes: -Citadel Knives and Swords is a sword and knife manufacturer based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Despite the country's reputation as an exotic and remote location, the company is easily accessible, located close to the city's international airport. The workshop is modest but houses an impressive range of high-quality Japanese swords and knives.
Founded by Dominique Eluere in the 1990s, Citadel has combined the expertise of French and local craftsmen to produce blades that rival the best in the world. Eluere began by training Cambodian blacksmiths to make French table knives, later evolving into the production of Japanese swords.
The quality of Citadel swords is world renowned, thanks to the use of traditional Japanese techniques and a meticulous manufacturing process. Each katana is heat treated, creating a blade with varying hardness along the edge and spine, a hallmark of true katanas. The hilt is fully encased in high-quality stingray leather, a rarity compared to common panels.
Attention to detail extends to every element, with every component custom-made for each blade. This includes the tsuba (sword guard) and habaki (blade collar), both of which are hand-crafted and fitted, ensuring perfect fit and functionality.
In addition to katanas, Citadel also produces European swords and knives, maintaining the same philosophy of quality and functionality. Production is artisanal, with particular attention to polishing and finishing, often done by hand with sandpaper and whetstones.
Citadel is proud of its Cambodian roots, with local workers looking up to Eluere as a father figure and deeply involved in maintaining the company's high standards.
In short, Citadel Knives and Swords represents a perfect fusion of tradition, craftsmanship and innovation, offering products that are truly functional works of art. These tools, while expensive, represent an investment in quality and craftsmanship that is hard to match.

History of the Model
The Model 7 was designed as a scaled-down version of the Model 3 Hunter.
Almost immediately, the idea of a scaled-down version of the new Hunter dawned on Bo Randall as an ideal knife for his fellow anglers. An avid fisherman since his youth, Bo regarded this new knife as a labor of love and immediately set to work on the project. At first he tried 4- and 4.5-inch blades, but then opted for the 4 1/2-inch one. Bo wanted the right handle for cleaning brook trout and similar sized fish, so he reduced the size of the handle of the new Hunter and changed its shape. Naturally, he called this model the "Fisherman," and some early prototypes with 4-inch blades were delivered to some dealers during the latter part of September 1945.AP-RAND7-4V -
