Description & Features
NRS Co-Pilot Knife is built for quick access and confident handling in high-pressure river situations. Its compact size and low-profile design integrate cleanly with your PFD, so it’s always within reach when you need it most. Trusted by rescue professionals and everyday boaters, it delivers reliable cutting performance with added safety features.
The partially serrated blade combines a smooth edge for clean cuts and reverse scallops for slicing through tough fibers like rope and webbing. A blunt tip reduces the risk of injury in tight rescue scenarios, while the asymmetrical handle and blade help you orient the knife correctly without looking.
The Thumbs Up Sheath™ secures the knife firmly and releases instantly with a one-handed thumb flick. A built-in oxygen tank valve wrench adds versatility, and the textured handle ensures a confident grip even in cold, wet conditions.
