Welcome to the 3V Syndicate! A wicked tool for wicked work! The Akuto is a seemingly simple tool, meant for a simple job: Poking holes in things. Built around this sole purpose, when you start looking closer you start seeing the little details. The long, super slender profiles makes it easy to pierce deeply into objects with only small gaps and weak spots with a push of the chisel ground edge. The 'underside' features a long fuller starting from the tip, to allow easy drainage when you go punch holes in things even if the Akuto is still stuck in whatever you poked. The blade has a tungsten Cerakote finish for corrosion resistance. The handle fits great in hand, with or without gloves, and the contoured grip features diagonal texturing for a not too aggressive but secure grip. Comes with a kydex sheath, ready to be configured a number of ways with the included MAD straps or mounted to gear or hung, and a custom leather slip sheath.
About the 3V Syndicate (In RMJ's Words):
The 3V Syndicate is composed of three very select groups. One; RMJ USA’s highly skilled craftsmen and designers. Two; the hand-selected inner circle of our most dedicated dealers. Three; You, and the other purpose-driven users who seek the very best high end cutting tools.
All three groups are drawn together around top shelf products made from CPM 3-V steel. This high end, American made tool steel is a lot like the members of the Syndicate, it's cantankerous, extremely tough, and can be rough around the edges. CPM 3-V is hard on the equipment used to shape it. Machinery, cutters, grinding belts, and the craftsman's patience are all tested by this difficult to work steel. However, in the end, the tools crafted from it are worth the effort, they are the embodiment of American excellence.
Purchasing an Akuto will give you access to the 3V Syndicate Safe House. As a 3V Syndicate member you are positioned for limited runs and exclusive products available only to members. Others need not apply!
