Proudly made in the USA, this model is equipped with a 3.5” CPM S30V stainless steel tanto blade, celebrated for its exceptional edge retention and wear resistance.

Engineered for those who face demanding tasks, the tanto profile offers reinforced tip strength, making it ideal for piercing and heavy-duty use.

With a dual-action, out-the-front deployment, this knife is designed for quick, reliable access. The thumb slide, intuitively positioned on the handle, operates smoothly for both deploying and retracting the blade. This precision mechanism locks the blade firmly into place whether opened or closed, giving users a solid sense of control. The handle, crafted from durable 6061-T6 aluminum, is anodized in black for additional resilience and a striking appearance. This material and design choice provides a lightweight yet sturdy grip that feels substantial in hand, perfect for extended use.

Measuring 4.9” closed and extending to an overall length of 8.4” when deployed, this knife balances ease of carry with a formidable in-hand presence. Weighing in at just 3.6 ounces, it maintains a low-profile yet authoritative feel.
