Miniature Automatic Knives

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Tekto Design Unveils the Pocket-Sized A2 Badger OTF Knife

— March 21, 2023 — Lifestyle
Tekto Design unveils the new A2 Badger knife, which is a miniature automatic knife that is able to fit into one's pocket. The foldable design seemingly looks like a toy and it measures to be about 3.3 inches long when the blade is retracted. It is about 5.26 inches when the OTF blade is out, which stands for 'out-the-front.'

It boasts a compact and lightweight structure, which makes it easy to store away and transport when on the go. It is a great option for those who enjoy the outdoors and travel with limited space. Notably, the blade is made from a durable Titanium-coated D2 steel, which is also anti-corrosive, designed with an American Tanto edge to it.
