Overview
The Shock Trooper was originally intended to be the prototype of my recondo 3 model, however i decided at the end to choose another path for the recondo 3 which rendered this a one of a kind unique blade. This model received the name „Shock Trooper” and this is truly a combat knife designed for field work as well as fighting if the need arise. For material i choose a special steel. A custom ordered forged billet from Tobias Hangler, co-developer of ApexUltra Steel. The steel is a 5 layer go-mai, with 62-63 HRC hard ApexUltra Core, Nickel shim, which serves as a carbon diffusion layer and martensitic stainless steel on the side.
