SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Guardian Tactical Recon-035 is a battle-ready out-the-front automatic knife built for those who demand top-tier performance. Proudly made in the USA, this OTF features a razor-sharp spear point blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut steel. This high-performance blade steel offers outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, ensuring the Recon-035 is ready for the harshest conditions. The black tactical finish enhances durability, reduces glare, and provides a non-reflective surface ideal for discreet carry and professional use.
Guardian Tactical’s patented OTF mechanism sets a new standard for smooth, responsive double-action deployment. Unlike traditional OTF knives, the Recon-035 features a unique thumb slide separated from the aluminum handle by a plate and three ceramic balls. This eliminates grinding and wear, ensuring effortless, reliable operation with every push. The innovative locking mechanism sits off to the side of the blade channel, preventing unnecessary friction and drag, making this one of the fastest and most refined OTFs available.
The handle is precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in an anodized olive drab green, striking the perfect balance between lightweight handling and rugged durability. Ergonomically designed for a secure grip, this knife is built for extended use without fatigue. The tip-up pocket clip allows for ambidextrous carry, ensuring quick access in any situation. Whether you need a reliable tool for tactical applications, self-defense, or everyday carry, the Recon-035 delivers high-performance action with military-grade dependability.
Engineered for speed, precision, and longevity, the Guardian Tactical Recon-035 stands as one of the finest OTF knives available today. Its flawless mechanics, premium materials, and American craftsmanship make it a true standout in the field.
