EICKHORN Infantry Combat Knife KM 2000 BW, smooth

Available from stock with us.

The Eickhorn KM 2000, smooth is the combat knife of the Bundeswehr in the "smooth" version without serration in the original configuration with the original tanto tip (straight blade spine). The combat knife 2000 was introduced in the Bundeswehr after a long tender process as a modern universal knife. Despite its name, it is not only designed as a weapon but serves the soldier as a tool for various tasks. With a blade thickness of 5mm and the tough 1.4110 steel, it exhibits high resistance to everything a young conscript can come up with. The blade is black coated to avoid reflections and increase corrosion resistance. The full tang ends in a striking surface, which can be used as a glass breaker.

The sheath is made of GFK and holds the knife securely via an integrated spring. The sheath and carrying system are detachably connected, the carrying system is designed for IDZ & Molle systems but can also be attached to a belt. A pad for sharpening the blade is attached to the sheath.

The EICKHORN-Solingen GmbH is a traditional Solingen company for steel goods, founded in 1865 by Carl Eickhorn. The company specialized early on in edged weapons and became known around 1900 for its military knives and bayonets. After several changes of ownership, the company is still a well-known and proven manufacturer of robust and reliable military knives and has recently expanded its range, as in the early years, back to the civilian market, where it can draw on its expertise in the production of robust and pragmatic operational knives. The manufacturing takes place in the traditional manner in Solingen, making Eickhorn one of the few remaining traditional manufacturers.
