The Pentagon FX Blackout has been developed to be a versatile, all-purpose fixed blade knife that has the size and weight that tactical users crave. In the hand of a law enforcement professional, the Pentagon FX Blackout can confidently handle any task that needs to be completed without delay. Its preferred tool for security guards, rescue, and military personnel is a no-nonsense, easily carried and close quarters blade knife. In a self-defense or close quarters situation, a knife can be the difference between life and death, or just a life-threatening mistake. A large pentagon-shaped handle with G-10 scales can provide the utmost in control and grip along with extreme comfort for extended use. A pentagon-shaped window in the blade allows a fast, one-handed opening. The pentagon-shaped handle provides the user with a good, solid hand grip despite large external elements like the blade being closed all the way, or the user abusing the knife as a weapon. In a self-defense situation, the increased grip area and in increased muscle mass of the extended handle provides the psychological edge required to successfully perform a task requiring the use of a tool. In a large pentagon shape, the pentagon has a pronounced "chicken wire" effect and is a SOG acronym that essentially means "sharpened" for "friction" (which also provides a better grip under stress or with the use of a larger blade). Thus, it is best to approach edgeless or "opening" for short, flat, and wide choiling motion, which facilitates a faster learning curve, while providing the user with an advanced grasping capability. Also, unlike a serrated or partially serrated blade, the choil area makes it easier and faster to "choke" to open larger/harder objects. It also provides a good non-abrasive surface for opening stubborn, or tougher to slice through stubborn materials. It also provides an excellent spine/handle purchase for dexterity of grip so the user only has to learn how to use it.![]()
