Miguel Nieto Rescate Folding Knife AN-58 79mm | Blue Mikarta
Miguel Nieto Rescate Folding Knife AN-58 79mm | Blue Mikarta
Description
The Rescate is a practical choice when a standard folding knife is not enough on its own. Miguel Nieto has built it around two blades, giving you the control of a regular drop point blade and the added reach of a rescue-focused cutting profile in the same 97g (3.4oz) tool.
The main blade uses AN-58 steel and a 79mm (3.1 inch) drop point shape for general utility cutting. The second blade is the specialist here. Its hook is shaped for freeing straps, harnesses, or belts, while the serrated Pearl Edge section is made for cutting through rope, tape, and fabric. The long opening hole also works as a shackle opening key, adding another useful function without adding bulk.
The blue Mikarta handle gives the knife a clean, durable feel, and the slip joint mechanism keeps the design straightforward. Made in Albacete, Spain, it carries the Miguel Nieto focus on traditional cutlery experience and practical modern materials.
Choose it when you want a compact folding knife with genuine rescue utility, not just a standard blade with a label attached.
