SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Hogue Compound Out the Front Automatic blends tactical precision with premium American craftsmanship, built for those who demand reliability in every detail. Designed in collaboration with SIG Sauer, this Emperor Scorpion edition stands out with its Flat Dark Earth PVD finish and battle-ready design. Fast, durable, and engineered to perform under pressure, this is the kind of knife professionals trust when it matters most.
At its core is a 3.5" CPM S30V stainless steel tanto blade, chosen for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness. The FDE PVD coating not only enhances the knife's tactical look, but adds another layer of protection against wear and the elements. The tanto blade shape offers a strong tip for piercing and excellent performance in push cuts—ideal for hard-use scenarios.
The dual-action thumb slide provides rapid deployment and retraction, powered by an internal mechanism housed within a robust 6061-T6 aluminum chassis. This anodized frame is wrapped in a solid black G10 handle, textured with Hogue’s signature Mini Piranha grip pattern for superior traction in any conditions. A blacked-out SIG medallion is inlaid into the handle, underscoring the knife’s premium pedigree and partnership roots.
At just 3.6 ounces, the Compound is remarkably lightweight for a full-size out-the-front design. It carries comfortably in the pocket thanks to a tip-down pocket clip and compact 4.9" closed profile. Whether you're operating in the field, working on duty, or simply want one of the finest OTFs available, the Hogue Compound delivers uncompromising performance in a rugged, slim package.
Made in the USA and backed by Hogue’s commitment to quality, this knife is a go-to choice for law enforcement, military, and everyday tactical users alike. Order it today from SMKW!
