About this knife

A fireman's knife first and foremost: a firefighter helmet is etched in white between grooved panels on the 11.7 cm black aluminium handle, and the handle is shaped to be held firmly with a work glove on.

Unlike the tanto models of the rescue range, this one has an 8.5 cm drop-point blade in black-coated stainless steel, with a finer tip for precise cuts. A flipper tab and assisted opening deploy it with one hand. The rear carries a seatbelt cutter hook and a glass-breaker point.

A popular gift for firefighters and first responders. 149 g, made in Pakistan, wholesale. Fits sheath ref. 2090, sold separately.

Questions & answers

Before you order for your crew

What is the price of this rescue knife in Pakistan?

Visitors from Pakistan see it priced per piece in rupees (PKR) at the top of the page. Fire stations, rescue teams and shops buying in quantity pay less per knife: send the number you need on WhatsApp or by email and we will quote. The matching sheath is priced separately.

What makes a good knife for a firefighter?

Features that still work with gloves on and in poor light: a handle with real grip, one-hand opening, and tools you can find by touch. This one has grooved aluminium panels, a flipper tab with assisted opening, a seatbelt cutter and a glass-breaker point at the rear, and an 8.5 cm drop-point blade whose finer tip suits precise cuts through webbing, cord or tape.

Can the handle carry a station or team name?

Engraving and private label are available on request, which makes the knife a natural retirement, graduation or long-service present for a crew. Send us the text or logo with the quantity, and we will confirm what can be done.

Pro tip

Practise finding the tools with your gloves on

Rescue features only help if your hands find them without looking. Once a week, wearing the gloves you actually work in, take the knife out, locate the seatbelt cutter and the glass-breaker point by touch, then open the blade with the flipper tab and close it again. Good firefighter knives are shaped for gloved hands, as this grooved handle is, and a few minutes of practice turns that design into habit.

Complete the set

Accessories for the station locker

A rescue knife lives in pockets, lockers and kit bags, so a couple of extras make it easier to carry and keep in working order. Like the other rescue models in the range, this stainless Pakistan pocket knife is sized for one particular sheath:

Padded Black Leather Sheath: ref. 2090, the sheath this knife is made to fit, with a padded interior and a snap closure.
Black Steel Double-Notch Pocket Sharpener: flat enough to ride in a kit bag, for touching up the drop-point edge after a day of cutting tape and webbing.
Wooden Gift Box with Sharpening Rod & Grease Tin: turns the knife into a retirement or promotion present, with its care kit included.

The story

Leather helmets, seatbelts and the rescue knife

Firefighting's best-known emblem is the helmet, and its classic shape has a documented origin. The leather fire helmet with a long rear brim, made to shed water away from the neck, is generally credited to Henry Gratacap, a New York luggage maker, in the 1830s. Versions of that silhouette still identify fire services in many countries, so a helmet etched in white is a fitting motif for this black handle.

Knives joined the kit much later. As seatbelts became standard in cars, crews needed small tools to cut jammed belts and to clear side windows, which are made of tempered glass and shatter into small pieces when struck with a hardened point. A Pakistan knife built around those two tools, with a drop-point blade for everyday cuts, follows that working logic.
