Tsavo Wraith GreenTHIS IS A RESTRICTED ITEMA knife one million years in the making. Its blade contours and sleek dark handles reflect the power and stealth of the fierce, man-eating lions of Tsavo.As the legend goes, the lions of the Tsavo river area of east Africa had developed such acute predatory instincts that their survival appeared almost supernatural. Their aggression became brutally real at the turn of the twentieth century, when some 135 African and Indian workers, who were building a railroad bridge over the Tsavo river in Kenya, were killed and eaten by two of these monstrous creatures.Hunting under cover of darkness, the lions of Tsavo actively pursued their human prey month after month. This unusual behavior formed a local legend of unearthly proportions. The lions of Tsavo were said to be ghosts, or wraiths. Their bodies were inhabited by the lost souls of evil men. Through the shadows, men fired their guns in vain. With one paw in this world and another paw in the next, no living thing in Tsavo would ever be safe again. In fact, the lions of Tsavo became the killers of the night and the true kings of the jungle.The TSAVO WRAITH has a blade with a slicing edge, which looks like a metal lion’s claw. It’s hollow ground re-curved edge flows smoothly into a chiseled point, and then takes an abrupt turn up the backside of the blade. ATS-34 has been used to ensure that the TSAVO WRAITH maintains its edge and durability for years to come. The blade and handle fitting is so precise, that only a lion’s claw could match its strength and cutting ability. The aircraft grade aluminum billet stock handles are also strong enough to outlive any mortal.
