Krate Tactical Carbon Fiber OTF Knife

The Krate Tactical Carbon Fiber OTF deploys a 3 1/4-inch D2 steel drop point with a thumb slide and runs in a contoured handle of carbon fiber over an aluminum frame. Same dual-action mechanism and ceramic glass breaker as the rest of the Krate OTF line, configured in carbon fiber for the operator who carries every day and prioritizes a clean profile in the pocket.

Key Features

  • D2 tool steel drop point: 3 1/4-inch single-edge blade, flat grind, black finish, corrosion-resistant.
  • Carbon fiber handle: Contoured handle of carbon fiber over an aluminum frame.
  • Dual-action thumb slide: One-handed deployment and retraction on a single slide.
  • Ceramic tip glass breaker: Built into the pommel for emergency situations.
  • Tip-down deep carry pocket clip: Secure, discreet carry under cover garments.
  • Right-hand and left-hand use.
  • Includes nylon sheath, storage box, and disassembly tool.
  • Lifetime warranty from the manufacturer (excludes loss or theft).

Why It Matters in the Field

The Carbon Fiber OTF runs the same dual-action mechanism, D2 steel blade, and ceramic glass breaker as the rest of the Krate OTF line. The drop point geometry handles the full range of EDC and duty cuts: cordage, packaging, seatbelt egress, and general utility. The dual-action mechanism allows the support hand to stay on a weapon, a steering wheel, or a casualty, and the deep carry clip keeps the knife concealed under cover garments.

FAQ

How does the Carbon Fiber OTF differ from the Jade G10?

Same dual-action mechanism, same blade length and steel, same ceramic glass breaker. The blade type differs: drop point on the Carbon Fiber, single-edge on the Jade G10. Handle scales differ: carbon fiber on this model, jade G10 on the Jade.

Is the Carbon Fiber OTF legal where I am?

OTF and automatic knife legality varies by state and locality. The customer is responsible for verifying state, county, and municipal laws before ordering. The manufacturer does not ship to California or New York. Active-duty military and LE personnel are typically exempt from most automatic knife restrictions.

Does it ship to APO/FPO addresses?

Yes. tacticaledge.com ships free to all APO and FPO addresses. Automatic knives may carry additional shipping restrictions overseas; reach out if you have questions.

Can I deploy it one-handed under stress?

Yes. The thumb slide handles both deployment and retraction, and the configuration runs in either hand.

How does D2 steel perform in the field?

D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel. It holds an edge longer than standard stainless under hard use and resists corrosion well, which makes it a strong choice for duty and EDC blades.

How heavy is it in the pocket?

100 grams. Closed length is 5 inches, so it conceals well under duty shirts and civilian cover garments.

What is included?

Knife, nylon sheath, storage box, and disassembly tool for cleaning and maintenance.

What does the warranty cover?

Krate Tactical backs the knife with a lifetime warranty, excluding loss or theft.
