Product Description

Bring some color to your carry. The Shootout Crater Blue trades the standard black handle for a Crater Blue Grivory build, paired with an S30V stainless steel tanto blade finished in Flat Dark Earth PVD for excellent edge retention in a colorway that stands apart from the rest of the lineup. In place of the glass punch, this version carries a lanyard pommel, and deployment comes from a spine-fired release rather than a top-mounted button — still a double-action out-the-front automatic that fires and retracts with a single motion. ⚠️ This is an out-the-front automatic knife — OTFs are restricted or banned in some states and municipalities; verify your local and state laws before purchase or carry, and see akti.org for a state-by-state reference.

• S30V stainless steel, tanto blade, Flat Dark Earth PVD finish — 3.513-inch blade delivers excellent edge retention
• Double-action out-the-front automatic with spine-fired release — fires and retracts with a single motion for fast, reliable deployment
• Crater Blue Grivory handle with a lanyard pommel — a standout colorway with an easy attachment point for fobs and lanyards
• Ambidextrous, deep-carry tip-down pocket clip in black oxide — backed by Benchmade's LifeSharp free lifetime sharpening service

This is the Shootout for buyers who want OTF speed and a standout colorway instead of the standard black-on-black look, and for carriers who'd rather have a lanyard attachment point than a glass punch — provided you're in a state where OTF automatics are legal to own and carry.
