Design Philosophy
This compact version maintains the distinguished character of the original Homefront while offering a more manageable size for true everyday carry. The drop point blade geometry provides excellent utility for general cutting tasks, while S35VN steel delivers the corrosion resistance and edge retention serious users expect.
The black G10 handle provides reliable grip in various conditions, and the traditional flipper opening gives you complete control over blade deployment—no batteries, no springs, just mechanical reliability you can depend on.
