Unlike the big brother, there is no titanium version here, just two 304 stainless versions – blunt tip and sheep tip. Hence, the launch of the Micro Squeeze Knife range. However, they also noted the rise of cutting tools like the Trilobite, which could be mounted pretty much anyway on your BCD or wing, and were even small enough to go on your dive computer strap.
All-round winner.Īqua Lung totally nailed it with the Squeeze Knife range, making a compact knife that attached to your BCD and was useable whether you were in this country or in warmer waters. This has all the features of the others just with an extremely sharp spear tip.Īll three easily sliced through every test, and the handle was comfy and easy to use even with thick gloves on. There is also a spear tip version in titanium (£68) which is supremely lightweight. The sheep tip has sharp section, serrated section, line cutter and bottle opener. The blunt tip has a screwdriver tip, sharp section, serrated section, line cutter and a bottle opener. The 304 stainless steel versions (£35) come in either blunt tip or sheep tip. It comes with mounts to attach it to grommets in your BCD or wing. There is a lanyard hole in the hilt, and the sheath has drainholes. The handle and sheath are nylon with fibreglass fill. That name is used to signify the use of Aqua Lung’s patented ‘Squeeze Lock’ design, which securely holds the knife in its sheath, but when the diver needs it, a simple squeeze of the hand and the knife is deployed with a minimum of fuss. Aqua Lung have become experts at producing well-made and useable dive knives, and the Small Squeeze Knife range continue this tradition.
