SMALL KNIVES (11cm)

A lot of knives are available with blades of exactly this length. Again the Blandford, IST, Seemann-Sub and Beaver knives in this category looked very similar, with identical locking sheaths. They were each undeniably functional.
The Technisub Zak 2 and Zak 3 were also good, but spoilt by being hard to withdraw from their sheaths.
Overall, although more costly, the Tusa X-pert seemed most businesslike in this category.
