Hogue Counterstrike OTF Automatic Knife Black G-Mascus -3.5in Tanto Tumbled Plain

The Hogue Counterstrike OTF Automatic Knife Black G-Mascus is a tactical masterpiece designed for professionals who demand reliability, precision, and performance in their gear. As the lightest and slimmest out-the-front (OTF) automatic knife Hogue has ever produced, the Counterstrike offers sleek, ergonomic handling without sacrificing strength. Engineered by Hogue President Jim Bruhns, this knife eliminates the common issues of trigger rattle and blade play, ensuring a stable, secure feel when in use. Whether for tactical operations or everyday carry, the Counterstrike is built to excel under any condition.

At the core of this knife is a 3.35-inch CPM 20CV stainless steel blade, known for its exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade’s Tanto shape, combined with its tumbled finish, provides superior cutting power and a rugged aesthetic, ideal for those who need both functionality and durability in the field. The Tanto design is particularly suited for tasks that require a strong, reinforced tip, making it a versatile tool for heavy-duty piercing and slicing.

The Counterstrike’s deployment mechanism is a smooth dual-action OTF system. With the simple push of the thumb slide, the blade opens and retracts swiftly, offering fast and reliable access whenever needed. The slim, lightweight construction allows for ease of carry without compromising its solid performance.

The handle of the Counterstrike is built for comfort and durability, featuring a striking black G-Mascus layered G-10 front handle and a textured black G-10 rear handle. These materials provide excellent grip and a robust feel, making it easy to handle in both wet and dry conditions. The internal frame is constructed from anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, offering a strong yet lightweight core to the knife's design. Weighing only 2.9 ounces and with a closed length of 5 inches, it’s both compact and easy to carry.

Additional features include an ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip for versatile carry options, and a carbide glass breaker, adding emergency utility for situations that require breaking windows or other glass surfaces. Proudly made in the USA, the Counterstrike exemplifies Hogue’s commitment to superior craftsmanship and functionality. Order it today from SMKW!
