Description
The Templar Back The Blue Small OTF Knife, 2.69 inches Tanto (brand part no. SBTB231) is a double-action out-the-front (OTF) automatic from TEMPLAR KNIFE, sized as a small-tier knife and built around a 2.69 inches 440C stainless steel blade ground into a tanto tip built for strength on piercing cuts. Templar’s OTF mechanism slides the blade straight out the front of the handle and pulls it straight back in with the same control, and a built-in safety stop halts the blade if it meets resistance before it locks out, so it can be reset and put right back into service. The handle is finished in a Back The Blue-themed black and white finish with a blue line over an aluminum build. It ships with a glass breaker, a pocket clip, and a nylon sheath, so it is ready to carry the day it arrives. This small-size Back The Blue model gives fans of the pattern a knife sized and shaped for daily carry.
