The Ka-Bar TDI Law Enforcement (brand part no. 1480) is a compact fixed blade designed by John Benner, founder and owner of the Tactical Defense Institute, specifically as a discreet, always-available backup tool. A 2.31-inch drop point blade is machined from AUS-8A stainless steel, and the knife rides in a low-profile black Zytel sheath with a belt clip so the entire unit stays well concealed when worn on the pant belt. It is sized to fit belts up to 1.75 inches in height, 1.25 inches in width, and 0.13 inches thick.
