Guardian Tactical Recon-035 Two-Tone Elmax Double Edge Desert Tan OTF Automatic 97231

The Recon-035 is a modern and innovative, double action, out the front automatic that is perfect for everyday carry. With patented steel thumb slide base and floating blade construction the Recon-035 is smooth and reliable in its operation while having minimal play and a rock solid feel. This version comes with a two-tone black coated, double edge Elmax blade and desert tan handle.

Brand new, direct from Guardian Tactical USA.

Blade: The dagger-like blade sports a dual hollow grind with razor sharp, plain cutting edges. A center fuller adds visual appeal with a durable, corrosion resistant black KG Gun Kote on the grinds and handsome satin finish on the flats. The blade operates on an innovative and patented floating mechanism that prevents undue wear on the blade as well as delivering a smooth, drag-free operation. Push the top slide, which rides smoothly on bearings and a non-magnetic stainless steel plate, and the blade deploys and retracts with a decisive action.

Handle: Desert tan hard anodized, aircraft grade aluminum houses the blade and mechanism with subtle finger contours and strategic milling on the sides for a solid, secure grip. Construction is completed with Torx hardware and a hole is provided for lanyard attachment at the pommel end.

Carries via a right hand, tip down only pocket clip.

Bohler Elmax: Bohler Elmax is a popular choice for high-end user grade knives thanks to its excellent edge retention. Elmax has similar performance to the American S30V with a slight improvement in corrosion resistance and toughness.
