Abstract
The device discloses a thrusting knife of improved design which provides for an angled handle to allow more natural thrusting movements in hand to hand combat situations. The knife is comprised of a pistol grip-like handle which is more natural for a user to hold and provide a striking action with more natural wrist position when in use. The invention is more readily adaptable by individuals already trained in fist fighting tactical pistol drawing and placement or other self defense or combat arts. An index finger opening at the interface of the pistol grip and blade provide for improved control. An alternate embodiment is configured for use with a gloved hand.
