Today’s tactical fixed blade knives still resemble the first Bronze Age daggers of 4000 years ago, especially in their handle design. Michael Martinez, inventor of the Merlin® knife deployment system, didn’t start out to redesign the fixed blade, but he explains, “We tested over 400 knives with the Merlin system, and I kept noticing how many knives, even expensive ones, didn’t feel right, didn’t have a grip that gave both control and comfort in the four fundamental tactical grips.”
