MAD DOG REZINE #002, PRICE DROP $2700
Inventory #108
FROM MY COLLECTION
BOUGHT UNUSED FROM DEALERS AND COLLECTORS
NEW OLD STOCK Unused.
I bought this new and it is unused by me.
Blade 10” long, 1/4” thick, 1 1/2” wide withe Very Vivid Temper Line (VVLT), 15” overall length, G10 Handle.
Single edge, straight back.
2 sheaths: Dundee Sheath, Drop Sheath.
Script Mad Dog makers mark.
Very Vivid Temper Line means that the blade near the edge has a more shiny look than the rest of the blade.
This is a rare feature that was available on some Mad Dog knives
Historical trivia:
Rezin Bowie was Jim Bowie’s brother. Some sources write that he was the source of a large single edge knife the Jim Bowie used as a weapon.
So a Rezin Bowie has come to refer to a large single edge knife.
=======================================================
From Wikipedia
Mad Dog Knives was a custom knifemaking facility headed by Kevin McClung, a former Senior Materials Scientist at the American Rocket Company, Mad Dog Knives is based in Prescott, Arizona.[1][2] Mad Dog Knives made the fixed-blade knife known as the ATAK, used by Naval Special Warfare Groups 1 and 2 after the "SEAL Trials" of 1992.[3] Mad Dog Knives are typically made from selectively tempered, hand ground O1 Tool Steel with a hardchrome plating to protect the blade.[1]
Materials and design
Mad Dog Knives makes tactical fixed-blade knives, originally using Starrett 496-O1 high carbon tool steel and later switching to Precision Marshall Presco American Made 01, which is given a proprietary heat treatment. This process includes hardening, stress relieving, and selectively tempering the blade.[1] As a result, the blades have an edge hardness of 62-63 on the Rockwell C scale whereas the tip, spine, and tang have a Rockwell hardness of 50-54.[1] This heat treatment was devised to develop phenomenal edge retention while preventing tip breakage and maintaining a degree of flexibility on the softer spine to improve the toughness of the knife. The blades are coated with a layer of hard chrome as a method of abrasion and corrosion resistance.[1]
Mad Dog Knives utilizes a proprietary glass/epoxy composite material for the handle material of its knives.[1] This material can withstand long term heat in excess of 149 degrees Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit), a tractive force of 79,000 psi, current of 1,000 volts per mil (0.001") of thickness and is impervious to salt water, diesel oil, benzine and other caustic/corrosive fluids.[1][4] Mad Dog Knives utilizes Kydex 100 ® as a sheath material. [1][5]
Mad Dog Knives has made ceramic MIRAGE X blades and blades from other non-metallic materials for EOD and other military usage.[6] These knives are not available for sale to the general public.[6]
