Ernie Emerson Custom Waved CQC-6

This is a nice example of Ernie's signature model folder, the CQC6. Its build is the latest iteration in the 30-year evolution of this iconic folder: thick lock bar, wave, zero grind chisel blade with penetrator profile, slightly pointy boat-tail butt, and wide thumb detent. It's got an added on thumb disc to dress it up a little, but otherwise, it is the classic tactical knife in the latest build specs.

Jon, these seem to be coming up less and less frequently as Ernie has scaled back his show schedule--in fact, it may well be the final form the 6 will evolve to. And, it will shock no one to recognize that the supply of Sixes has dwindled while demand continues to soar.

The CQC-6 would have made Ernie famous even if he'd only designed one knife. It was a real departure from anything else available at the time - exceptionally strong w/a TI frame & bolsters, thick steel blade with a tanto armor-piercing thick tip, & great in-hand ergos. At one time it was closely associated with private purchases by SEALs, and an instant classic that was copied by many but duplicated by no one.
