Model: MZBRF221 • UPC: 093674813977 • Action: OTF (Out-the-Front) • Blade: 3.16" Tanto, Plain Edge • Steel: D2 Tool Steel (Black Oxide Stonewashed) • Handle: 4.93" Aluminum-Zinc Alloy with Betsy Ross Flag motif • Overall Length: ~8.1" (open, approx.) • Series: Premium Weighted Slim
Carry patriotic style in a pocket-friendly, hard-working package. The Templar Knife Premium Weighted “Betsy Ross Flag” Slim (MZBRF221) blends a compact 3.16-inch tanto blade in D2 tool steel with a weighted aluminum-zinc alloy chassis wearing the iconic Betsy Ross Flag. The Slim profile keeps weight and bulk down, while the OTF mechanism provides fast, one-handed deployment for daily tasks. A black oxide stonewashed finish reduces glare and helps hide wear, so your knife stays looking sharp even after a long week of cutting cord, cardboard, and strap.
Why the Premium Weighted “Betsy Ross Flag” Slim Stands Out
D2 Tool Steel Performance: High wear resistance and edge retention make D2 a favorite for frequent, abrasive cutting like pallet wrap, zip ties, and packaging.
Black Oxide Stonewash: The subdued, scratch-forgiving finish camouflages scuffs and reduces reflections for a low-profile look.
Slim, Weighted Control: A narrower chassis keeps the footprint compact while the aluminum-zinc alloy adds just enough heft for steady tip control—even with gloves.
Tanto Utility: Reinforced point excels at precise scoring and puncture starts, while the long flat edge delivers smooth, controlled slices.
Fast OTF Action: Out-the-front, one-hand deployment and retraction via a positive, tactile slider—ideal when your other hand is occupied.
Patriotic Motif: The Betsy Ross Flag handle pairs bold American style with everyday practicality.
