Knives come in a variety of sizes, the most common being 13.5cm, 9.5cm, 13cm, 11.5cm, 8.5cm (the number indicates the length of the blade of the knife).

(1) 13.5cm, is the longest blade inside, is a tactical knife, lethality and robustness is relatively strong in the field is adapted to more difficult projects, can kill the enemy and face emergencies at any time to use; But the knife is too long, and the flexibility is relatively poor.
