ADVANTAGES

GLOBAL RECOGNITION
Sturm is the long-term bestseller of Kizlyar Supreme on all six continents where our knives are sold, thanks to its versatile shape, carefully selected materials and excellent heat treatment.
No other Kizlyar Supreme knife has ever received as many reviews as the Sturm - we have collected some of them for you at the bottom of this page.
Sturm was originally developed at the request of our partners from Germany. Europeans have always liked the tactical line of Supreme knives, but the length of the blades more than 12 cm did not allow them to be used freely outside their own country.
LAW ENFORCEMENT NEEDS
At the same time, there was close communication with the special forces, who were also interested in a small, robust tactical knife.

Therefore, the design team was given a clear task: a rugged tactical knife with a 119mm blade, good grip control and a lightweight, durable sheath.
everything included
That's how the basic idea of this sturdy knife came about:
Full tang construction - as simple and reliable as possible
Tactical Echelon handle with "clingy" pads made of a combination of Kraton and ABS.
Appropriately thick 4.2 mm tip to ensure blade durability under heavy use
Straight edge drawn down to 0.5 mm - a guarantee of good cutting and long life of the edge.
Lightweight sheath made of special polyamide with strong lock and universal suspension, which can be attached to the belt at different angles, as well as to MOLLE cells.
SAFETY IS TOP PRIORITY
Safety in combat and civilian use of the knife is ensured by the shape of the handle. The blade protrusion and the handle notch serve as limiters. The notches on the shaft notch are extended to the sides of the blades and form a kind of protection at the mouth of the handle.

The tapered shape of the handle towards the tang also plays an important role, as it forms an implicit stop. Two notches on the sides of the blades, deeper at the tip, emphasize the quickness of the shapes and also taper the handle in the transverse plane, improving the grip during a thrust, creating the same conical effect and preventing the handle from rotating in the hand.
THOUGHTFUL DESIGN
The lower part of the handle is wide enough to hold the knife closer to the stop or, on the contrary, closer to the tip, which increases the length of leverage when cutting.

On the side of the tip there is a metal tab for striking. It has a rounded shape and does not interfere with the handle when the palm rests on it.

All blades in the series have a thickness of about 5 mm - this provides high strength of the knife in case of transverse loads and gives the knife the necessary solidity when stabbing.
PROCESSING OPTIONS
In addition to the classic StoneWash treatment, the knives in the Tactical Echelon series are also available with the TacWash treatment, a special technology for treating the blade surface through multi-stage vibropolishing.
The method of TacWash application was developed by the experts of Kizlyar Supreme factory especially for police officers who need a glare-free blade exposed to minimal scratches.

Now hunters can also appreciate the benefits of this finish. TacWash gives the blade a deep gray color, completely removes glare, improves anti-corrosion properties and, unlike most coatings, is resistant to mechanical damage, so scratches are virtually non-existent.
WITH HANDLE DOWNWARDS
The sheath consists of a multifunctional nylon sheath and a high-tech plastic insert.

The knife is secured in the sheath by special protrusions that fit into the recesses of the handle.
The front part of the blade is fixed by a special clip in the recess of the liner, so that the blade does not rattle when worn.

It is so safe that you can safely carry the knife even with the handle down.
best steels
The Sturm comes in a range of excellent steels: PGK, AUS -8 and powdered CPM 4V and CPM M4.

A very high hardness of 62-63 HRC is a user's dream - the knife will hold up to a sharpening perfectly. However, blades at this hardness usually become brittle. Not with PGK steel!
This incomparable German steel can withstand very high loads even at such a high hardness. Thanks to the high content of alloying elements (carbon, tungsten, vanadium, molybdenum, silicon), this steel is characterized by aggressive cutting ability and maximum wear resistance, which means that it retains its sharpness.
WILL CUT AND SLICE
AUS -8 is considered a balanced steel and is used by the leaders of the Western knife market for mid-priced knives. It was invented in Japan and is recognized as one of the best steels, combining such important quality parameters as good corrosion resistance, good strength and good wear resistance.

CPM powder steels from Crucible, thanks to powder metallurgy technology, combine properties that cannot be achieved with conventional steel production. This costs a lot of money, but the results are impressive.
WITHOUT COMPROMISE
When developing the Sturm knife, we put aside the thought of simplicity of manufacture and focused primarily on the comfort and efficiency of the knife at work.

You will easily feel all the advantages of this approach (sophisticated but sharp blade structure, composite handle, lightweight compact sheath) as soon as you pick up the knife and start working.
