Frank.Thanks My friend,I have 3 choices of blade steels,S-30V,A2,S-7.

How much lateral stress can the S-30V take??

 

[Rick Haney Design]

Frank,That's where I think S-7 or A2 wins out over S-30V.

I incorporated the molle mounting platform on this design.
I deleted the oxygen & wire breaker,Most soldiers carry a multitool.
I did leave the pry bar & pry bar removable swivel pry bar cover.
I also deleted the seat belt cutter,It is used rarely in the real world situations

 

[creightonfcb]

I would probably lean towards the A2... good call on the seatbelt cutter and wire breaker!

 

[Rick Haney Design]

Frank,If I feel the nail notch is useful I may do a version for testing.

 

[Rick Haney Design]

Scaled mounting platform & grommets to design.

Frank,A2 is a definate possibility.

 

[Dmitry Platonov]

I like your design, but I think some hook-like curvature at the end of handle would help with chopping, preventing blade slipping out of hand.

 

[Rick Haney Design]

Dmitry,It has a slight curve to the handle.Traction nothches should also help in gripping.There is a forward & rear lanyard holes.When chopping using a lanyard cord would be beneficial. Thanks for your input.

Sorry I skipped the layout process.
Used .280 thick S-7 left over from the Combatchet project.
