HO34870: Counterstrike OTF AUTO - Solid Black G10

Hogue Knives

Introducing the Counterstrike, the lightest, slimmest, and most refined out the front to hit the Hogue Knives lineup of American-made knives. Designed by Jim Bruhns, Master Tool Maker and President of Hogue Knives, the Counterstrike defeats any notion of trigger rattle or blade play – shortcomings that nearly all automatic out-the-front knives experience. With an aesthetically balanced blade-to-frame ratio and an unwavering double-action, the Counterstrike is destined to impress even the most critical knife enthusiast.

These standard Counterstrike models feature CPM-20CV blade steel, cryogenically heated treated at 59–61HRC, and are available in tanto and drop point profiles with stone tumbled or black PVD finishes. At 2.9 ounces, the knife retains extremely lightweight through a streamlined, 6061–T6 anodized aluminum case coupled with an elegantly milled G10 cover. The Counterstrike includes a deep carry, ambidextrous pocket clip, and a carbide glass breaker with a lanyard loop. Each package also includes a filler screw for those that prefer to remove the glass breaker attachment.

Every Hogue knife is made in the USA and is backed by three generations of manufacturing expertise.

Cons: Ease of Opening
Cool but a little frustrating
So just got this todayWorked like three or four times and then seemed to bind up. Sprayed some brake cleaner inside to no avail.Decided if I sent it back, it would probably be a week turn around time, a least, ugghhh. Watched a YouTube video to get an idea of the mechanism and dissassembly. Blade was binding at the first lock, so got a course and fine diamond plate, that I use for chisels.Lapped the top side and bottom side of the knife blade, where it runs in the groove of the handle. Don’t want to take a lot of material off, just enough to smooth the action. A little put off that a $300 knife needs this amount of elbow grease to tune it, but it’s smooth as butter now.
