The Hogue Deka Folding Knife stands out as a high-performance everyday carry tool built for reliability and precision. Featuring a 3.25-inch CPM MagnaCut stainless steel blade with a modified Wharncliffe profile, this knife delivers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The blade is coated in a sleek black Cerakote finish for added durability and a low-reflective surface that fits right into any hard-use environment.
Designed for practical carry and quick deployment, the Deka operates as a manual folder with dual thumb studs for ambidextrous one-handed opening. At the heart of the action is Hogue’s ABLE (Ambidextrous Bar Lock Enhanced) lock, which is engineered to provide a solid, secure lockup while remaining easy to disengage with either hand. Whether you're on the job, in the field, or out on the trail, the Deka offers dependable performance in a compact, lightweight form.
The handle is built from rugged Flat Dark Earth (FDE) Polyamide Nylon 12, reinforced with glass fibers for increased strength and impact resistance. The crosshatch texture improves grip without adding bulk, ensuring control even in wet or gloved hands. This folder also includes a reversible deep-carry stainless steel pocket clip, mounted for tip-up carry, making it truly ambidextrous. A lanyard hole rounds out the design, giving users extra flexibility for carry or gear attachment.
Weighing in at just 2.1 ounces and measuring 4.25 inches closed, the Deka offers a strong blend of portability and cutting capability. It’s a knife that disappears in the pocket until it’s needed—and when it is, it performs with confidence. Designed by renowned knifemaker Allen Elishewitz, the Deka reflects a commitment to quality craftsmanship and innovation. Like every Hogue knife, it’s proudly made in the USA with American materials and labor, standing as a testament to functional design and domestic manufacturing excellence.
