New utility backup blade designed for police and EMT.

CRKT®is releasing theTerzuola HWY Rescue™ fixed blade utility knife. Designed by Bob Terzuola of Albuquerque, New Mexico, this compact blade and extras are poised to mow through belts, break glass, and save lives.

Terzuola is widely regarded as the father of tactical folding knives. And when local highway patrol members asked him to design a tool they could attach to their body armor and always have at the ready, he was happy to oblige.This 3” fixed blade,stamped out of stainless steel is finished with a strong bead blast, and the sheath is specifically designed to obliterate glass with ease with a tungsten carbide tip built in: when seconds count, this knife won’t second guess when it hits a windshield.

The compact skeletonized handle accepts a lanyard, and easily rejects dirt, blood, rain, or whatever chance might present. Three grooves on the handle of the knife ensure that your grip is always rock solid. The glass reinforced nylon sheath has industrial-strength Velcro® on the back so it’s always at hand, and a seatbelt cutter that eats belts with remarkable efficiency. The strap cutter comes with two replacement blades, so you’ll always feel like you’re cutting butter.

Bob Terzuola welcomed the challenge of designing the perfect mission-ready tool to help his community heroes do what they do best. He knocked it out of the park.

Attach the Terzuola HWY Rescue™ knife and get more than a backup blade—get piece of mind that you’re ready for whatever an emergency situation can serve up.

The Terzuola HWY Rescue™ manufacturer’s suggested retail price is $59.99
