Las Vegas - Bear & Son Cutlery will unveil a wide range of new knife products at the 2013 SHOT Show, including several from their Bear OPS Tactical Division.

The Bear OPS tactical knives are headed by the new Model MC-300-B4-S Stiletto Sideliner lock. The 3-1/4" satin finish dagger blade, which opens easily with one hand, is made of premium CPM-S30V stainless steel for superior edge retention, and corrosion- and rust-resistance.

This new Stiletto liner lock has smooth, contoured G10 handles, with an anodized black aluminum frame. G10 is unmatched for its toughness, light weight and insulating qualities in extreme hot and cold conditions. MSRP, $140.

New Neck Knife
For those who prefer the convenience of a neck knife, Bear OPS has created a new series including the CC-400-B. It has a 2-7/8" blade made of 1095 carbon steel with a black epoxy coating. Overall, it is

6-1/4" long in a Kydex® sheath, and with neck chain. MSRP, $60.

There will be additional knives in this Neck Knife Series.
