Panther is Mad Dog'stm personal fighter. A 10" flat ground blade with 3/4 length sharp false edge (and we mean sharp). Panther is not only surpsisingly light, but very fast in the hand. This fighter comes with a Dundee rig as the standard carry system, thus allowing even a relatively small person to easily carry the blade across the back.

The blade steel is Starrett 496-01 high carbon tool steel. Selectively tempered, the A.T.A.K.tm has a Rockwell C-scale hardness of 62 at the edge (as hard as a file), and HRC 50-54 throughout the spine and hidden full tang. This provides superior edge-holding ability with exceptional durability for prying and chopping. Each blade is hard chromed providing excellent corrosion inhibition. The ergonomic grip indexes the blade in the user's hand, thus letting the user know how the blade is presented, even in the dark. Mad Dog Knivestm uses a glass/epoxy composite grip material that is compression bonded to the hidden full tang. With a compressive yield strength of 79,000 psi, the grip can withstand tremendous punishment with no damage. The composite grip material provides 1,000 volts per mil dielectric strength - electrically isolating the user from the blade. Our grip material is also impervious to virtually all chemicals and solvents.
