SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Guardian Tactical Recon-035 is a precision-built out-the-front automatic knife engineered for unmatched performance. Proudly made in the USA, this knife features a tanto blade crafted from premium CPM MagnaCut steel, offering exceptional toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The dark stonewash finish adds a rugged appeal while reducing glare and hiding signs of wear, making it an ideal choice for demanding tactical and everyday carry applications.
At the heart of the Recon-035 is Guardian Tactical’s patented OTF mechanism, designed to deliver one of the fastest and smoothest double-action deployments available. Unlike traditional OTF designs that suffer from button friction and wear, the Recon-035 features a thumb slide separated from the aluminum handle by a plate and three ceramic balls. This system, combined with an innovative locking mechanism positioned away from the blade channel, eliminates unnecessary friction, ensuring a crisp, effortless action every time. With its lightning-fast deployment and rock-solid reliability, this knife is built for those who demand peak performance.
The handle is constructed from black aircraft-grade aluminum, providing a lightweight yet incredibly durable frame. Its ergonomic design ensures a comfortable, secure grip, while the textured surface enhances control in all conditions. A tip-up pocket clip allows for ambidextrous carry, keeping the Recon-035 ready at a moment’s notice. Whether used for professional tasks, self-defense, or collection purposes, this knife delivers premium quality with no compromises.
Crafted with cutting-edge technology and premium materials, the Guardian Tactical Recon-035 sets the bar for modern OTF knives. Its flawless mechanics and durable construction make it a standout choice for serious users.
