Why You’ll Want the Engage 3" Tanto (Orange)
Corrosion-resistant 4116 stainless: Easy to sharpen, holds a fine working edge, and shrugs off moisture—great for high-frequency EDC use.
Tanto geometry, plain edge: Reinforced tip for controlled piercing; long, straight cutting edge for efficient push and draw cuts on rope, boxes, and plastic strapping.
Black PVD + stonewash: Durable, low-glare finish that reduces friction and hides scratches from everyday use.
High-vis Orange GFN handle: Glass-Filled Nylon scales provide traction without weight and make the knife easy to locate in low light or deep bags.
Carry-ready design: A robust belt/pocket clip keeps the knife oriented for fast access while remaining discreet in pocket.
Confidence-in-hand: Neutral ergonomics, textured scales, and a secure lockup mechanism (see manual) keep the blade planted during tougher cuts.

Care & Maintenance
Clean & dry after use; 4116 is stainless but benefits from basic care.
Add a drop of light oil to the pivot for smooth opening/closing.
Touch up with a fine stone or ceramic rod; strop for a razor working edge.
Inspect hardware (clip/body screws) periodically; snug to spec if needed.
Safety & Carry Notes
Verify the blade is fully locked open before cutting.
Always cut away from your body and keep fingers clear of the edge path.
Check and follow local carry laws regarding blade length and folding knives.
