Smith & Wesson Vintage 6051 4" Boot Dagger / Kraton Rubber Handle / USA Satin 440 ( Pre Owned )

1981 American Series 6051 Boot Knife

In 1977 following the successful Smith & Wesson Blackie Collins designed Survival Series of knives, Robert Ferraro an engineer at S&W was requested to design a new series of medium-priced folding and fixed blade knives. Three years in development, in 1981 Smith & Wesson introduced the American Series Featuring a 440 stainless steel blade, Posi-Grip handle and Wessonhide sheath.

Manufactured in the USA by Vermont Knives for Smith & Wesson they were sold only through the S&W dealers. The 6051 Boot knife came in a satin finish and 6051 B featuring a black blade. This boot knife was popular because of the use of 440 stainless steel, sturdy sheath w/clip, and its quick maneuverable size.
