Parachute Titanium Gravity Knife: Gravity Perfected

A Legacy Reimagined with Modern Precision

Inspired by the legendary WWII gravity knives used by paratroopers in life-or-death scenarios, the Parachute Gravity Knife honors the past while redefining performance for today’s modern carry. We’ve taken the historical DNA of a battlefield-proven tool and rebuilt it from the ground up using the highest-grade materials and innovative engineering.

Refined Engineering, Rapid Deployment

At the core of the Parachute is its intuitive gravity-assisted action, delivering lightning-fast deployment with a flick of the wrist or downward motion—no springs, no complications. But what sets it apart isn’t just speed—it’s precision. The blade glides cleanly into position and locks into place with virtually zero play, thanks to our proprietary magnetic locking mechanism that balances security with ease of use.

Minimalist by Design, Maximal in Utility

The Parachute features a clean, three-piece chassis made from Grade 5 titanium, supported by premium internal hardware and an M390 steel blade known for superior edge retention and corrosion resistance. The result? A knife that’s featherlight, incredibly durable, and effortless to disassemble and maintain.

Why the Parachute Knife Stands Alone

Premium Materials: M390 blade steel and titanium handles offer elite performance, corrosion resistance, and an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.

Magnetic Lock Innovation: Our proprietary magnetic mechanism delivers smooth, safe locking without springs or mechanical wear.

Zero Blade Play: Precision machining ensures rock-solid lock-up and flawless deployment every time.

Minimalist Construction: Just three primary parts and essential hardware—making cleaning, servicing, and carrying simple and reliable.

Built for EDC: Compact, slim, and ready for pocket carry with an integrated titanium clip.

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.

The gravity-operated sliding mechanism also allowed the knife to be deployed quickly and efficiently.

Unlike spring-loaded switchblades, which use a mechanical spring to push the blade out, gravity knives rely on the blade's weight and gravity to slide open.

This design was both simple and reliable in harsh conditions

This minimized 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.

The Legacy of WW2 Rigger Pouches

Originally crafted by paratroopers and riggers in the field, these pouches were born out of necessity. Soldiers needed lightweight, durable, and versatile solutions to carry critical gear such as ammunition, tools, and personal items during combat. Using spare canvas, riggers fashioned pouches that could be easily attached to belts or harnesses, embodying resourcefulness and practicality. The Rigger Pouch honors this history by embracing the same principles of adaptability and durability.
