The Parachute Gravity Knife

Our Best-Selling Blade – Inspired by History, Built to Honor

There’s no better time to honor the legacy of fallen heroes than with the knife that pays tribute to the paratroopers who served with courage and precision. This top-selling design is inspired by the legendary gravity knives first developed during World War II — originally engineered for airborne soldiers who needed a fast, dependable way to cut themselves free from tangled parachute lines.

The gravity knife became a symbol of simplicity, reliability, and performance under pressure. We’ve reimagined that iconic tool using modern materials and precision craftsmanship — transforming it into a piece of living history you can carry every day.

Crafting Modern Tools That Empower the Modern Warrior

Gravity knives were originally designed as a practical tool, primarily for military purposes. Developed during World War lI by German paratroopers, the unique sliding blade mechanism allowed soldiers to operate the knife with one hand, which was crucial if they needed to cut themselves free from parachute cords or other gear while using their other hand for stability or balance.

This design was both simple and reliable in harsh conditions, minimizing the need for complex parts that could jam or break in the field. Over time, gravity knives became more widely available, though they remain a specialty tool with specific use cases, especially where one-handed operation is essential.
