Medford M-48 Folding Knife DLC S45VN/Black Handles/DLC Hardware

The Medford M-48 is a bold statement of craftsmanship and precision, drawing inspiration from the formidable M-48 Patton main battle tank. Featuring a 3.9" S45VN stainless steel drop point blade, this knife is built for serious use, with exceptional edge retention and durability. The black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coated finish not only adds a sleek, tactical appearance but also enhances the blade's wear resistance, making it an ideal choice for heavy-duty tasks. With a manual blade flipper, the M-48 offers smooth, reliable deployment every time you need it.

The handle design is where the M-48 truly pays homage to its namesake, sporting a green anodized aluminum front handle etched with the iconic M-48 tank tire tread pattern. This adds a unique, rugged texture that sets it apart from other folding knives. The tumbled aluminum rear handle complements the front, providing a sturdy, lightweight build. Equipped with an ambidextrous pocket clip and a lanyard hole, this knife is versatile enough for left or right-handed carry, ensuring you have quick access no matter the situation. At 4.6" closed and weighing only 3.5oz, it offers a perfect balance of portability and strength, making it an excellent everyday carry option.

Designed by master knifemaker Greg Medford, the M-48 proudly carries the legacy of American manufacturing. Every detail of this knife reflects the quality and craftsmanship that Medford Knives is known for, and it's made entirely in the USA. For those who demand performance, style, and heritage in their gear, the Medford M-48 delivers on all fronts.
