The SELVANS was developed as a cooperation between Extrema Ratio and the Master Instructor Daniele Dal Canto of F.I.S.S.S. (the Italian Survival Federation). It’s a modification of the ONTOS – a military survival knife – designed to enhance its effectiveness as a civilian tool. A longer handle and a heavier blade enable enhanced chopping and cutting action.
