Hogue Knives' EX01 Tactical Folder from their Extreme Series is now available as an automatic opening knife. The action is smooth and lockup tight via the button lock mechanism. There is also a front mounted safety to lock the blade. The 6061-T6 aluminum handle is black anodized. The front of the handle has grooves for grip strength and a large reversible pocket clip on back for tip-down or up carry. The drop point style 154-CM steel blade is stonewash finished with a razor sharp plain edge. Hogue, well known for the gun grips, has ventured into the knife world with the introduction of the Extreme Series, designed by Allen Elishewitz. The knives look good, they are comfortable and the function and action is beyond reproach. Be sure to view our other Hogue Knives in stock!
