Hey Folks,
Here is the New S-T-S-5.
Click to Enlarge
The S-T-S-5 is a New design that we developed at the specific request by members of the U.S. Marine Corps Force Recon.
The Face and nature of Warfare in the last 10 years has changed. With encounters becoming Face to Face and chest to Chest it has been time for some new Strategy and some new training of Elite Units.
The use of a knife as a weapon had really been mostly phased out for all U.S. Armed Forces.
Without going into Specifics on the Actual Training that has been adopted and is in use there is now a need for a knife that is compact while still having enough Blade to reach Vitals and stout enough to deliver enough energy to pierce to those vitals.
The S-T-S-5 fits that need.
Here is the Knife in My Hand.

Note how Stout the knife is.

Here is the View From the Bottom:

Note that the handle slabs are Contoured and the Palm Swell is more forward than on a Bushcraft Knife or a Hunting Knife.
All three of the last fingers of the hand curl behind the Swell and into a recessed contour of the slabs when holding the knife in Turse with Blade forward.
When held in Blade Reverse Grip the Palm Swell is perfectly centered in the Palm.
The underside of the knife's handle is "Self Righting" in the hand no matter how you pick it up.
The Butt of the knife is Rounded but protrudes just enough to be used as a Yawara in toe to toe encounters to gain that split second advantage.
Here is the S-T-S-5 in Reverse Grip with the Butt leading.

As You can see this knife was not casually designed and will serve our Brothers and Sisters in Arms well.
The Standard Sheath for the S-T-S-5 is Kydex. The Color of the sheath will match the blade.
