Hogue 24452 Mysto 3.40" Folding Drop Point Plain Black Stonewashed CPM MagnaCut Steel Blade, Redstone Richlite Handle

The Hogue Mysto 3.40" folding knife is a compact, dependable blade built for everyday carry and field work. Built around CPM MagnaCut stainless steel heat-treated to a hard 62–64 HRC, this drop point folder delivers edge retention and corrosion resistance without demanding constant maintenance—a practical choice for hunters, campers, and outdoors workers who need a knife they can trust in variable conditions. The blade's flat grind and hand-honed edge come ready to work, and the black stonewash finish hides wear while giving the knife a refined, understated look.

Hogue engineered the Mysto around the ABLE Lock (Ambidextrous Bar Lock Enhanced), a manual locking mechanism that's intuitive to operate one-handed and works equally well for right or left-handed users. The Redstone Richlite handle provides a warm, textured grip that's comfortable during long days in the field, while bronze anodized titanium backspacers and thumb studs add durability and a touch of visual character. At 2.5 ounces and 7.8 inches open, the knife balances portability with substance—it's light enough to forget you're carrying it, solid enough to handle real tasks.

The deep carry pocket clip supports both tip-up carry and left or right-handed configuration, so you can set it up exactly how you work. A lanyard hole gives you another carry option if you prefer that security, and the 4.4-inch closed length fits easily in a pack, truck cubby, or jacket pocket without bulk. Hogue includes a fire element PVC patch with purchase—a nice touch if you're building a loadout of gear you actually use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Hogue Mysto suitable for left-handed carry?

Yes. The ABLE Lock works equally well for right and left-handed users, and the deep carry pocket clip can be mounted in either tip-up right-handed or tip-up left-handed configuration, so you can set the knife up to match your preference.

What is CPM MagnaCut and why does it matter for a field knife?

CPM MagnaCut is a premium stainless steel engineered for excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. Hardened to 62–64 HRC and cryogenically heat-treated, it holds a sharp edge longer than conventional stainless blades and resists rust and discoloration—important when you're working outdoors in damp or salty conditions and don't want to babysit your blade.

How does the Richlite handle feel and perform in wet conditions?

Redstone Richlite is a composite material that provides a warm, textured grip surface. It's dimensionally stable and comfortable during extended use. The bronze anodized titanium backspacers and studs add durability where the knife takes impacts.

What's included with the Mysto?

The knife comes with a Bruhns Design fire element PVC patch.
