Features
- Locking Serrated Blade: Constructed with 440 stainless steel, this liner locking blade has a serrated edge for cutting through tough material. Spring assisted for easy, one-hand operations, this knife will quickly become your go-to when in the bush.
- Seat Belt Cutter: Need to get out quick? The seat belt cutter will slice through jammed harnesses.
- LED Flashlight: Removable LED flashlight activates with a twist of the head. Magnetic back makes it easy to mount to something when you need both hands free.
- Magnesium Alloy Fire starter: Having a fire is important to prolonged survival out in the bush. This magnesium alloy fire starter will provide a hot spark to help get things going.
- Window Breaker: While this won’t work on a Plexiglas aircraft window, any tempered glass will be no match for this stainless steel window breaker.
- Includes belt clip and sheath.

I ordered the pilot survival knife, and got the Flight Outfitters multi-tool instead - not sure who to follow up with here.

Great product and very well thought out and the quality I have come to expect from Flight outfitters. Would recommend this product.
Great knife overall. I love that the flashlight is removable and has a magnetized base. The assisted open is also a major bonus. If I could improve on this knife I would do the following: Make the body less slippery (e.g. textured), and add a small hole to be able to attach it to my flight suit with a lanyard for ditching scenarios.
I read about this knife in Flying magazine and immediately purchased a few (one for me and others as Christmas gifts.) I am pleasantly surprised at the knife and its value. Im not sure what the blade steel is but it is definitely sharp. The knife is a little heavy - but with all of its features, that figures. Well see how it holds up.
Subpar Pilot Survival Knife - Body of the knife is too slippery. Needs a textured grip like most hunting knives. - The Belt clip was not tight enough and slips out too easily. - The Knife blade was not sharp enough. And the quality of the Steel used is questionable, it doesnt seem to hold its edge very well and deforms quite easily. - The spring assisted opening of the knife is alright. - The Torch is meh at best and the magnetic base is a good touch. - The Glass breaker, while nice to have, will not work on acrylic windshields like most small GA Aircrafts have. - Yep, the Seatbelt cutter is good to have. Hopefully it stays sharp. Would I recommend it as a Pilot survival knife? Absolutely not.
