Templar Slim Badlands Tanto M-BDL-23-1 Automatic Double Action OTF

Product Description

The Templar Slim Badlands Tanto M-BDL-23-1 is a double action automatic OTF knife with a 3.43″ black 440C tanto blade. It belongs to the Gen 2 series and uses a Badlands theme on the handle.

Double action means the blade fires out of the front and retracts back into the handle. The tanto blade has a plain edge and a black finish. It is 0.11″ thick and rated at 61 HRC. Overall length is 8.5″, and the knife closes down to 5.05″.

What sets it apart

The handle is made from a Premium Metal Alloy, and the whole knife weighs 6.6 oz. The Gen 2 Slim build includes a glass break feature and an easy reset. Those two details make it more than a plain carry knife. It is made in China.

This knife suits people who like OTF automatics and want a tanto profile. It fits daily carry, work-truck storage, and range or camp bags. Check your local and state laws on automatic knives before you order.

Good companions include a sharpening stone, a small pocket organizer, a belt with a carry pouch, and a compact flashlight. Keep a cleaning cloth and light lubricant with it, since OTF knives run best when the slot stays free of lint and grit.
