High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Tactile Knife Co. Redhawk is a compact, medium-sized fixed blade designed for everyday carry and built to perform in demanding situations. Crafted in collaboration with Taylor Martin of Best Damn EDC and proudly made in the USA, this knife combines thoughtful design with high-quality materials to deliver a reliable tool that balances functionality and durability.
Measuring just under 7 inches overall with a 2.75-inch blade, the Redhawk strikes the perfect balance between practicality and performance. Its blade is made from CPM MagnaCut steel, a modern alloy prized for outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. This means the blade stays sharp longer and stands up to hard use without sacrificing strength or reliability.
The blade features a reverse tanto profile, a modified sheepsfoot style with a subtle curve along the belly that allows for effective slicing while maintaining a strong, reinforced tip for piercing tasks. At approximately 0.12 inches thick, the blade offers solid durability without feeling bulky. The black Cerakote finish not only adds an aggressive tactical look but also enhances corrosion resistance and reduces glare in the field.
Handling the Redhawk is a pleasure thanks to its 3D-contoured black Micarta scales. The ergonomic handle includes a scalloped pinch-grip section, providing a secure and comfortable grip even during extended use. The materials and shape ensure excellent control while maintaining a lightweight profile, with the knife weighing in at just 3.16 ounces.
This version of the Redhawk comes with a premium leather sheath crafted by Chattanooga Leatherworks using Hermann Oak leather. The sheath provides rugged protection and offers versatile carry options, including belt carry. For those who prefer a more tactical approach, a variant with a Kydex taco-style sheath featuring a Discreet Carry Concepts (DCC) clip is also available.
The Redhawk is designed for those who demand a reliable, high-performance fixed blade without the bulk of larger knives. Whether you’re tackling everyday tasks, outdoor adventures, or more demanding situations, this knife delivers consistent performance wrapped in a sleek, tactical package.
The Redhawk’s thoughtful design, top-tier materials, and American craftsmanship make it a standout choice for anyone serious about their everyday carry blade. Shop this every day carry knife by Tactile Knife Co. at SMKW!
