Full Specifications

When you’re going the distance, you need a knife that will do the same. Inspired by—and built for—tactical situations, the Bailout® takes ultralight power to its maximum potential. Boasting a diamond-textured, anodized aluminum handle and CPM-M4 blade steel in a tanto profile, this slim pocket tool achieves an optimal strength-to-weight ratio that makes it suitable for hard use and everyday carry in equal measure. New for 2023 is a low-profile colorway featuring a Tungsten Gray Cerakote blade finish and black handle.
