Since then, the bayonet has seen almost continuous use in warfare for its ability to allow soldiers to fight in close quarters even after discharging their weapons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ohio-based company Gripknife believes it\u2019s invented the\nnext evolution in the bayonet\u2019s story, and we caught up with them at SHOT Show\n2020 to see for ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The name says it all: Gripknife is a vertical grip that\naffixes to a rifle\u2019s forend and doubles as an \u201cout-the-front\u201d (OTF) knife. Users\ndeploy the edged weapon by pressing a button located on the rear of the mount,\nand the knife springs forward and locks in the extended position. To return the\nknife to the grip, users place the blade in the mount, push the button, and depress\nthe knife back into the handle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gripknife claims their Patriot model is the strongest OTF knife in the world. It features a four-inch blade constructed from M2 High Speed Steel\u2014the kind of metal used to make tools, bits, and blades that cut other steels and metals. The mechanism that locks the blade is Gripknife\u2019s design, and the company claims it can compete with the strength of folding-knife locks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"646\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1-1024x646.jpg\" alt=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-123834\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1-1024x646.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1-400x252.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1-150x95.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1-768x484.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Grip-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"630\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full-1024x630.jpg\" alt=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-123835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full-1024x630.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full-400x246.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full-150x92.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full-768x472.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-full.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-123836\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Knife-in.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button-1024x641.jpg\" alt=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-123837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button-1024x641.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button-400x250.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Button.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/designatir-us-night-vision-shot-show-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"gripknife-shot-show-2020\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\">DesignatIR: A New VIS\/IR Laser for the Civilian Market \u2013 SHOT Show 2020<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We found the Gripknife to be easy to deploy, but there\u2019s enough resistance that users shouldn\u2019t worry about ejecting the knife accidentally. The grip texturing feels good in the hand, and the knife has a solid, reassuring heft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gripknife reps described a variety of instances in which\ntheir product might be useful. In a home defense scenario with multiple\nattackers, a user might need a knife if an intruder(s) gets close enough to\ngrab his\/her rifle. Law enforcement personnel may also benefit from the\nGripknife in a similar scenario if they aren\u2019t able to deploy their sidearm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gripknife has produced a training video for their product,\nand you can check out an excerpt below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with their original Patriot model, Gripknife is ready to ship a lighter, cheaper option constructed with A2 rather than M2 steel. This model, called the Defender, saves customers about $200 and about 2 ounces of weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gripknife also plans to develop a version with a shorter\nblade, and they had a prototype model at their booth we got to check out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"666\" title=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype-1024x666.jpg\" alt=\"The Modern Bayonet: 'GripKnife' is a Foregrip and Knife in One \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-123838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype-1024x666.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype-400x260.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype-150x98.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Prototype.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Patriot is on sale right now for $495 and the Defender is on sale for $290. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full specs on the Patriot are below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gripknife \u2013 4\u201d Patriot<br \/> Knife Type: Foregrip<br \/> User: Ambidextrous<br \/> Mechanism: Out-The-Front<br \/> Action: Magnetic Assist \u2122 Spring Assist<br \/> Overall Length: 8.10&#8243;<br \/> Overall Mounted Length (From Tactical Rail): 5.50&#8243;<br \/> Blade Type: Spear Point, Single-Edged<br \/> Blade Grind: Flat<br \/> Blade Length: 4.00&#8243;<br \/> Blade Material: M2 (54-56 HRC)<br \/> Blade Width: \u22481.06&#8243;<br \/> Blade Thickness: .187&#8243;&nbsp;<br \/> Blade Finish: Black Nitride<br \/> Handle Material: Zytel<br \/> Handle Color: Black<br \/> Handle Texture: 60 Grit<br \/> Handle Width 1.50&#8243;<br \/> Handle Thickness: .96&#8243;<br \/> Blade Lock: Linear Cam\u2122<br \/> Blade Lock Material: 17-4ph CNC Machined<br \/> Blade Lock Coating: EXO<br \/> Chassis: Model 7<br \/> Chassis: 2-Piece Dovetail, Interlocking<br \/> Chassis Material: 17-4ph CNC Machined<br \/> Chassis Coating: EXO<br \/> Chassis Lubricant: Self-Lubricating<br \/> Sheath: Rail Mounting Sheath<br \/> Weight Overall: 11.50oz. \/ Knife Only: 7.80oz.<br \/> Best Use: Defense &amp; Survival<br \/> Design Type: Heavy Duty<br \/> Made: In USA<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/gripknife.com\/weapon-systems\/\" campaign=\"SHOTShow2020_Gripknife\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">HERE<\/a>  to learn more about Gripknife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_SHOT2020\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!
