Shape and style

The tanto blade puts its strength into the tip, which helps with heavy-duty tasks, while the serrated section near the handle cuts through rope, straps and fibrous materials. The stonewash finish on blade and handle cuts down reflections and hides signs of use.

In the field

It opens one-handed with the ambidextrous thumb studs or the flipper, which also acts as a finger guard once the blade is open. The strap cutter and glass breaker are classic roadside rescue tools, and the clip keeps it secure in a pocket, on a belt or on your kit.
