The **Ontario 499 Air Force Survival Knive** is a cool survival knife, designed according to the specifications of the American government. This is a knife that is used during different tasks carried out by the American army. It is made from the popular 1095 steel, a very tough type of steel that can easily be sharpened in the field. For this reason the knife comes with a small sharpening stone to make sure you can sharpen your knife wherever you are.


Ontario has adjusted the thickness of the blade to the purpose for which it is to be used. For that reason it is nice and thick and solid. The rough black coating protects the reasonably rust sensitive 1095 steel against corrosion. The spine of the blade has been enhanced with saw serrations.


The handle on the 499 Air Force Survival Knife is made from leather. Simply put: stacked disks of leather around the steel tang of the blade. Ontario chose not to add a finish to the leather to make sure you can choose the finish yourself. Think of oil, beeswax or any other substance.


The Ontario 499 Air Force Survival knife comes with a nice leather sheath. Perfect for both left and right-handed users. In the front you will find a small pouch filled with a small [Ontario sharpening stone](/en/pt/-ontario-sharpening-stone-replacement-sharpening-stone-for-the-ontario-499-o6151.htm) for on the road.

Un grande coltello per storia e per suggestioni. Non l'ho ancora utilizzato, ma penso che farà la sua parte nel bosco. Solo l'angolo del bisello mi sembra sia troppo ampio.

Nice knife with a nice thick spine and a good weight,  the one issue is that the blade cane dull like a butter knife otherwise a nice knife

I'm not an outdoors man, and although I carry an EDC, I bought this knife just for the cool factor.
The knife itself is well made and very nice, but the sheath is not on pair with the overall quality.
The knife is also very thick and can be easily sharpened.

Schitterend mes, juiste gewicht met dito handgreep. Als gereedschap is pommel (hamer) onmisbaar. Er had daaraan eigenlijk nog wel een 'oogje'aan gemaakt mogen worden om er een koortje door te rijgen .

Specialist knife. The teeth on the back of the blade are meant to saw through aeroplanes primarily so don't expect a perfect wood saw. The blade requires further work for a great edge and the sharpening stone provided is coarse, so you may want to use your own finer stones for the perfect edge. And the leather needs treating. Old pilots would soak the handle in an appropriate oil prior to use. If you are happy to fettle it is an excellent bushcraft knife, my favourite, and not too 'Rambo-esque'. Why don't you have one (yet)?

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
