The 3.3-inch tanto point blade is crafted from Bohler M390 stainless steel, a premium powder metallurgy steel renowned for its exceptional edge retention, outstanding corrosion resistance, and impressive wear resistance. This advanced steel is produced using a specialized manufacturing process that creates an extremely fine grain structure, resulting in superior strength and cutting performance. To further enhance its capabilities, the blade undergoes both vacuum heat treatment and cryogenic processing, reaching a hardness of HRC 60-62. The rugged stonewash finish helps conceal the marks of everyday use, while the flat grind delivers clean slicing performance. Its reinforced tanto point adds extra durability at the tip, making it ideal for precision work and tougher piercing tasks.
The vibrant orange G10 handle provides outstanding durability while making the knife easy to spot in the field or around camp. G10 is well known for its lightweight strength and resistance to moisture, chemicals, impacts, and temperature changes, making it an excellent choice for demanding environments. Ergonomically shaped to fit naturally in the hand, the handle offers a secure grip from multiple positions, giving you excellent control during extended use or challenging cutting jobs.
An Axis Lock (Crossbar Lock) delivers smooth, ambidextrous operation with solid lockup and simple one-handed opening and closing. Designed for both left- and right-handed users, this locking system provides confidence during hard use while remaining quick and intuitive to operate. Premium 6AL4V titanium hardware, including the tip-up pocket clip, pivot cap, and screws, enhances long-term durability without adding unnecessary weight. At just 2.95 ounces, the Blaze remains exceptionally easy to carry throughout the day.
With an overall length of 7.6 inches, a comfortable 4.3-inch handle, and a slim 0.1-inch blade thickness, this knife strikes an outstanding balance between cutting capability and everyday portability.
