The Miguel Nieto Rescate (Rescue) Folding knife features two blades. One standard drop point blade & a Multi-purpose rescue blade.
The rescue blade was designed to combat difficult situations or positions in which a drop point blade would struggle to be effective. The hook at the end of the rescue blade is designed to free people from harnesses, straps or belts. Following down the top, the serrated section has a Pearl Edge made to cut different ropes, tapes & fabrics. Lastly, the long hole at the middle top is for easy opening & to use as a shackle opening key.
