United Cutlery has partnered with the United States Marine Corps to produce its new officially licensed USMC line of knives. This line offers a selection of knives from combat fixed blades and assisted opening tactical folders to perfectly balanced throwing knives and tough kukri machetes.

Since the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program, a hand-to-hand combat system developed by the military branch, incorporates edged weapons into its training regimen, the partnership between United Cutlery, one of the most innovative knife producers in the industry, and the United States Marine Corps just made sense. The company set out to craft a line of knives that would embody the spirit of this formidable fighting force.

"Expanding our horizons and exploring new possibilities so that our customers have a choice of incredible products is always at the forefront of everything we do and we are excited at this new opportunity to serve them," said Clint Kadel, CEO of United Cutlery.

When something is labelled "Marine tough," there is no question what that means. A history of perseverance and fortitude in the face of the most hostile environments on the planet is what defines the Corps. United Cutlery has used these same ideals as inspiration to design and execute a line of knives that is worthy of the "Marine tough" label and the approval of the United States Marine Corps.

Each knife has been designed with real life, practical applications in mind and even the throwing knives are combat ready. Having the right tools that can be used to "improvise, adapt and overcome" is the key to success whether in country or at home and United Cutlery's USMC knives are specifically built to do just that. Blades are made from the highest quality steel and honed to a razor-sharp edge so that they are ready for any task right out of the box. All handles have been painstakingly crafted of premium materials to provide the maximum amount of comfort and security when using and assurance that they are tough and durable for any environment.

"When you're trying to survive, no other brand backs you up like our officially licensed USMC Knives," said Clint Kadel, president of United Cutlery.
