Why You’ll Want the FS-3 Texas Flag (Dagger)
Symmetrical Dagger Blade: Twin cutting edges* and a centered point provide precise penetration and balanced slicing for detail work, scoring, and straight pull cuts.
D2 Tool Steel Performance: High-carbon, high-chromium D2 is prized for excellent wear resistance and long edge life; the satin finish reduces drag and cleans up easily.
Dual-Action OTF Mechanism: A thumb slide handles both deployment and retraction—fast, deliberate, and designed for repeatable, one-hand use.
Cerakoted Texas Flag Handle: Lightweight aluminum scales wear a Texas Flag Cerakote that resists abrasion, sweat, and weather—built to look great and work hard.
Medium, Pocketable Form: The FS-3’s compact footprint carries comfortably yet offers real cutting reach for daily tasks.
*Always verify your local laws regarding double-edged blades.

Materials That Matter
D2 Tool Steel: Chosen for wear resistance and edge retention. While semi-stainless, D2 benefits from a light oil to guard against surface corrosion—especially in humid or coastal environments.
Aluminum + Cerakote: Strong, lightweight handle; Cerakote shields the Texas Flag artwork and adds extra abrasion and corrosion resistance.
Care & Maintenance
Clean After Use: Wipe the blade and blow out pocket lint from the OTF channel (compressed air helps).
Light Lubrication: A drop of quality knife oil on the blade/track keeps action smooth.
Edge Touch-Ups: Maintain the factory bevel using fine ceramic or diamond stones.
Protect the Finish: Avoid harsh abrasives; use a soft cloth to keep the Cerakote graphic crisp.
Safety & Legal Notes
Know Your Laws: OTF and double-edged knives are regulated in some jurisdictions. Verify local carry and ownership rules before buying or carrying.
Operate Safely: Keep fingers clear of the blade path; retract and lock before pocketing. Store securely and away from children.
