Questo progetto, patrocinato dal COFS (Comando Operativo Forze Speciali) nella persona del Gen.Bertolini, era gia stato suggerito da alcuni collezionisti di armi bianche d'epoca.
Il restyling del famoso "Pugnale da paracadutista assaltatore mod.1939", un importante pezzo di storia militare italiana.
Il coltello, pur mutuando la linea, la struttura e le proporzioni dell'originale, è stato irrobustito, arricchito di modifiche funzionali e realizzato con materiali a specifiche militari moderne.
Inaspettatamente, il risultato di queste poche modifiche è un pugnale estremamente funzionale ed efficace, assolutamente competitivo con i migliori coltelli militari contemporanei.
Il fodero è rigido da caviglia, alla maniera tipica in cui viene portata la baionetta dai paracadutisti italiani.
E' incluso il fodero da cerimonia per cintura, inclinato a 45° come l'originale.ER-39-OCSE€661.48Only 99 leftOnly 99 left -
