SILENTE comes from “SICUT NOX SILENTES,” the motto of the renowned N.O.C.S., Nucleo Operativo Centrale di Sicurezza (Central Security Operations Unit), the state police’s special anti-terrorism unit.
SILENTE was presented to the unit, the authorities, the Minister of the Interior, and the Chief of State Police during a ceremonial event marking the 40th anniversary of N.O.C.S.
SILENTE is one of a kind and meets unique needs: the handle is made of two parts and also functions as a grip for the clamp located at the end of the handle itself.
In addition to gripping anything of suitable dimensions, the clamp can be used to cut wire fences, metal wires, steel cables, etc. It can also be used as a glass breaker thanks to the tungsten carbide insert located at its tip.
The sheath protects the cutting edge for safe use of the clamp, but it can also release the blade by means of a retention system that can be activated quickly and quietly.
It can be attached to the thigh or to the M.O.L.L.E. system. It integrates into the operator’s gear while taking up minimal space.
