The Half Face Blades Osoraku 4in Black G10 combines premium American steel, a durable handle, and a dark, tactical-inspired appearance in a purpose-built fixed blade designed for dependable performance. Featuring a black G10 handle, textured grip, and Armor Black Cerakote blade finish, this Osoraku delivers a clean, purposeful profile backed by Half Face Blades’ commitment to practical craftsmanship. Whether you're handling outdoor chores, preparing camp supplies, or taking care of everyday cutting tasks, this knife is built to be more than just a striking addition to your gear.
The 4-inch blade is crafted from S45VN American steel, a premium stainless steel known for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and reliable cutting performance. With a .14-inch blade thickness, it offers a solid balance of strength and cutting utility. The Armor Black Cerakote finish gives the blade a subdued, dark appearance while providing a protective coating designed to help resist wear and corrosion. This finish complements the black handle for a consistent look that emphasizes function and durability.
The black G10 handle is engineered for regular use in demanding environments. G10 is valued for its strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to moisture, making it a practical choice for an outdoor fixed blade. Texturing across the grip helps provide traction and control, while the Allen bolt construction adds a functional detail to the handle's straightforward design. Together, these features create a dependable package that puts usability first.
Measuring 8.2 inches overall, the Osoraku 4in offers a practical blade length in a manageable fixed-blade format. A Kydex sheath is included for secure storage and convenient carry, helping protect the blade when it isn't in use. Whether you're assembling an outdoor kit or adding another American-made fixed blade to your collection, the Osoraku pairs carefully selected materials with a no-nonsense design.
Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, whose childhood hunting, camping, and fishing in Northern California shaped his appreciation for capable outdoor tools. After high school, he joined the Navy and went on to serve with the SEAL Teams. His experience in demanding operational environments helped establish the company's central principle: a blade must do more than look good; it must perform when it matters. Half Face Blades is veteran-owned and operated, and every knife is made in the USA. The company emphasizes purpose-built design, integrity, and lasting craftsmanship, while a portion of its sales supports charities and foundations honoring those who've served and sacrificed.
