Toor Knives is a well-known knife manufacturer based out of Southern California. The company specializes in manufacturing knives that fit the needs of operators, outdoorsmen, and hunters from around the globe. Recently, Toor launched its newest knife, the Valor which is part of its new Frontline series. The Valor takes inspiration from its storied history of fixed-blade knives used throughout military history as a tool designed for warfare and utility on the battlefield.
Below are the product description and specs for the new Valor fixed blade from Toor’s website.
From the time weapons began to be constructed from metals, blades have had their place in the hands of warriors during the conflict. Though designs have changed throughout the years, the infantry knife has had a rich and storied history in the military, having evolved from its earliest days as a tool designed for close combat to becoming an indispensable weapon for soldiers fighting in the trenches.
Inspired by that broad and illustrious history, we are honored to introduce Valor. This blade is an updated version of the infantry knife, using new materials and advanced Toor Knives manufacturing processes for the next-generation warfighter.
The Valor is purpose-built and was created to be part of the essential gear used by military personnel on the front lines, with a range of different features that reflect the changing needs of modern warfare. Whether used as a weapon or for cutting and prying, this blade is an indispensable tool made specifically for today’s warriors.
With an overall length of 10.875”, a blade thickness of 0.1875”, and weighing in at 9.3 oz, the Valor makes for an incredibly durable, effective, and versatile tool in the field. The Valor is designed with our War Wedge™ breaker on the back of the knife for blunt force when breaching or splitting. The G10 handle is carved in a 3D radial pattern, creating a belly in the center portion to add mass to the overall grip.
The CPM 3V blade is ground with a Hybrid Fuller™ to reduce the overall weight and bring symmetrical balance to the knife. The extra high flat ground bevel meets the swedge grind seamlessly, leading to the reinforced tip. The blade is assembled with our custom-turned hardware made from 303 stainless steel and is fitted with a fold-over FlexTech KYDEX® sheath, which accepts all Toor Knives mounts.
Every Valor is made entirely here in San Diego, CA, by our skilled and talented manufacturing team.
