Hinderer Firetac Spanto 20CV Blue G10 Stonewashed Titanium Tri-Way Folder 1333

The Firetac is a slim, sleek and capable “every day tactical” folder that Rick Hinderer developed over a decade ago and is now being released as a full production model. The Firetac is like a more streamlined version of the XM-18 3.5″. Sporting slimmer design with the same robust titanium frame lock construction, now with a hardened steel lock face insert, and high traction G10 front scale. This version comes with a stonewashed 20CV Spanto blade, matching titanium frame and blue G10 scale.

Brand new direct from Hinderer Knives.

Blade: With a high saber grind the +3.5 inch Spanto (Spear/Tanto) blade offers plenty of cutting edge with solid slicing performance and toughness with a more robust tip. A small section of jimping on the spine adds traction while the titanium thumb disk maintains a low profile providing fast, ambidextrous deployment with the user customizable Tri-Way pivot bearings installed. High performance CPM-20CV is delivered in a heavily stonewashed finish that looks great and hides wear from use.

Handle: Familiar Hinderer construction starts with a titanium frame lock with open-back construction and a titanium liner supporting the textured G10 front scale. Streamlined thanks to a lack of jimping on the handles, the Firetac offers a comfortable grip and smooth pocket transition. The frame lock is equipped with a hardened steel lock face insert for smooth and reliable operation and rock solid lockup. Frame and liner are both stonewashed for a rugged and stylish look.

Carries via a right-hand titanium pocket clip.

Tri-Way Pivot: The Tri-Way pivot features milled pockets in the blade and frame comes with smooth operating ball bearing pivot washers installed. By utilizing included steel spacers to fill those pockets, users can get a more classic feel with either nylon or bronze washers also included.

CPM-20CV: CPM-20CV (analog to M390 and CTS-204P) is a premium powder metallurgy (PM) stainless steel with high level edge retention and corrosion resistance. Relatively easy to sharpen, the coarse microstructure gives this steel lower toughness.
