German Navy Pattern Knife
The Mil-Tec German Navy Deck Knife is a two-tool folder built on the sailor's knife carried on German naval vessels. It pairs a straight cutting blade with a curved marlinspike, a tapered steel spike for loosening tight knots and opening rope strands when splicing. It suits sailors, boat owners, campers and collectors of German military patterns who want a knife built for rope work as well as cutting.
Features
- Folding Main Blade — A plain-edged steel blade with a pointed tip folds into one side of the handle for general cutting jobs.
- Curved Marlinspike — The second tool is a curved, tapered spike that folds into the opposite side and works knots loose or parts rope strands for splicing.
- Spike End Lever — A hinged steel lever sits at the marlinspike's pivot end of the handle.
- Black Handle Scales — Smooth black scales, the flat panels that form the grip, cover both sides of the frame.
- Brass Rivets And Liners — Brass-colored pins hold the scales in place, and brass-toned liners run along the edges of the frame.
- BUND Marking — Gold lettering on the handle reproduces the BUND stamp used on German Federal Armed Forces equipment.
- Lanyard Bail — A steel wire loop at the blade end of the handle lets you tie on a lanyard or clip the knife to a line so it is harder to drop overboard.
- Two-Sided Layout — Blade and spike sit on opposite sides of the frame, so each opens without disturbing the other.
Build And Carry
This is a commercial knife made by Mil-Tec to the German Navy pattern, not ex-service surplus. Steel tools, black scales and brass fittings follow the look of the issued knife. Closed, both tools fold flush into the handle so it fits in a pocket or pouch, and the bail gives you a secure lanyard point on deck or at camp.

Works perfectly for rope workI'm a rigger and this knife is a beast. Used it daily for two weeks now and holds an edge well. The marlin spike is great for splicing. No complaints, fast delivery too.

Gift for my boat obsessed brotherSaw this while looking for something unique for my brother who just bought a fishing boat and has every lure known to man but no decent tools. Was worried it would be cheap tourist junk like those fake scrimshaw knives but when he opened it he immediately tested the spike on a dock line knot and said the locking mechanism was legit. The 3 inch blade is legal to keep in his tackle box without permit issues. Then I discovered he's also using it for cutting zip ties when he installs new electronics on the console, opening stubborn packages of frozen bait, tightening the screws on his trolling motor mount because the spike tip fits small Phillips heads, and as a bottle opener because he figured out the spike notch catches caps perfectly. Shipping came fast in a padded mailer so nothing got scratched. For $28 its cheaper than the Leatherman I was going to get him that he already owns three of.

Fast shipping and very solid.I was surprised at how fast this arrived after I placed my order. The knife is a great reproduction and feels like it could handle some serious abuse on a boat. The only downside is that the handle is a little slippery when it gets wet.
Very fast delivery

Perfect tool for working with rope.This Mil-Tec version is a really faithful copy of the original German Navy deck knives. It is much cheaper than finding an original surplus one in good condition. I have used it for a few weeks now and the blade holds an edge pretty well.
It feels really solid in the hand and the safety catch on the spike works perfectly.
