MOA Performance are proud to import and distribute Mercworx knives to the Australian outdoor enthusiast.
Mercworx knives arguably make the best tactical and hard use knife in the market. It is not a custom knife and it is not a production knife. Mercworx has been available to the tactical community for more than 2 decades and have only been available commercially for the past few years. In their short commercial sales history, Mercworx has blurred the line between the manufactured and custom end of the knife industry, and in the process has created the ‘Factory Custom’ knife.
Each knife is crafted by one knife maker who does all of the grinding, sculpting, sanding, fitting, fabrication and final finishing at their New Jersey facility. The same process as a custom knife maker.
Mercworx make both fixed blade and folding knives. A full complement of blade sizes are offered to best meet the users desired application. Models offered include the following.
Folder: Atropos Clotho, Lachesis, Saevus(not offered)
Fixed Blade: Vorax, Tanto, Sniper, Goliath, Orian, Proeliator, Seraphym (not available), Shiva, David, Equatorian, Golgotha.
The Mercworx blade style is a hybrid of the Roman Gladius dagger with bulbous Filipino Bola, which combines tactical qualities with practical utility application.
The Mercworx Blade Profile is shown below.
