Model: MZTX321 • UPC: 093674817401 • Action: OTF (Out-the-Front) • Blade: 3.16" Drop Point, Plain Edge • Steel: D2 Tool Steel (Black Oxide Stonewashed) • Handle: 4.93" Aluminum-Zinc Alloy, Red/White/Blue with “The LONE STAR State” motif • Series: Premium Weighted Slim • Overall Length: ~8.1" (open, approx.)
Carry a slice of Texas pride—without the bulk. The Templar Knife Premium Weighted “Texan” Slim (MZTX321) combines a compact 3.16-inch drop-point D2 blade with a weighted 4.93-inch aluminum-zinc alloy handle finished in vibrant red, white, and blue and emblazoned with “The LONE STAR State.” The black oxide stonewashed blade hides wear and glare, while the slim OTF chassis gives you fast, one-handed deployment for real-world cutting—from box duty and pallet wrap to cordage and clamshells.
Why the “Texan” Premium Weighted Slim Stands Out
D2 Tool Steel Edge Life: Exceptional wear resistance and edge retention keep you cutting longer through cardboard, nylon strap, paracord, and zip ties.
Black Oxide Stonewash: A low-glare finish that camouflages scratches and stays presentable after heavy use.
Slim, Weighted Control: Aluminum-zinc alloy adds reassuring heft in a narrow, pocket-friendly frame for steady tip control—even with gloves.
Versatile Drop Point: Strong tip and generous belly for clean slicing, precise scoring, and everyday utility.
One-Hand OTF Action: Out-the-front deployment & retraction via a positive, tactile thumb slider when your other hand is busy.
Lone Star Styling: Bold red/white/blue handle with “The LONE STAR State” script celebrates Texas spirit without compromising ergonomics.

Storage: Retract blade fully and keep debris out of the mechanism for best reliability.
Safety & Legal Reminder
Know Your Laws: OTF knives are regulated in some areas. Confirm local/state regulations before purchase, carry, or transport.
Responsible Handling: Keep fingers clear of the blade path; deploy/retract deliberately.
Secure Storage: Use the pocket clip or a pouch; keep out of reach of children.
