The Half Face Blades Osoraku 3in Mini Black G10 is a purpose-built fixed blade that combines premium American steel, a compact profile, and a dependable grip for everyday utility and outdoor use. Designed with Half Face Blades’ commitment to practical performance, this knife delivers a clean, functional design backed by the experience of a veteran-owned American company. From camp chores and field tasks to routine cutting needs, the Osoraku Mini offers a capable tool in a convenient size.
At its core is a 3.3-inch blade crafted from S45VN American steel, a premium stainless steel valued for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall durability. With a .14-inch blade thickness, it balances a sturdy feel with a practical cutting profile. The acid-etched finish gives the blade a distinctive appearance while adding character to its working design. Whether you're preparing gear at camp, handling everyday cutting chores, or adding a compact fixed blade to your collection, this Osoraku Mini is built around useful performance rather than unnecessary embellishment.
The black G10 handle brings dependable functionality to the design. Known for its strength, stability, and resistance to moisture, G10 is well suited to demanding environments and regular use. The textured grip helps provide a secure hold, while the Allen bolt construction adds a clean, purposeful detail to the handle. Together, these features create a straightforward, durable package designed to feel at home in the field or as part of an everyday kit.
Measuring 7.6 inches overall, the Osoraku 3in Mini offers a compact footprint without sacrificing the practical reach of a fixed blade. It comes with a Kydex sheath for secure carry and convenient access when the knife is needed. The combination of black G10, an acid-etched S45VN blade, and a fitted sheath gives this model a distinctive look grounded in real-world utility.
Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, whose childhood hunting, camping, and fishing in Northern California shaped his appreciation for reliable outdoor tools. After high school, Arrabito joined the Navy and went on to serve with the SEAL Teams. His experience in demanding operational environments helped establish the company’s guiding principle: a knife must perform when it matters. Today, Half Face Blades remains veteran-owned and operated, with every knife made in the USA. The company emphasizes purpose, integrity, and lasting craftsmanship, while a portion of its sales supports charities and foundations honoring those who have served and sacrificed.
