Templar Knife SBRF331 1776 Gen II Small 2.69" OTF Drop Point, Black Oxide Stonewashed 440C SS Blade, Betsy Ross Flag Aluminum Handle with Glass Breaker, Pocket Clip & Sheath

The Templar Knife SBRF331 1776 Gen II is a small OTF (out-the-front) drop point knife built for quick deployment when you need a cutting tool fast. Sized at 2.69 inches, this double-action OTF knife balances speed and control, making it a reliable choice for EDC, tactical use, or field work. The blade is 440C stainless steel with a black oxide stonewashed finish that resists glare and looks the part, while the handle features a patriotic Betsy Ross flag design on anodized aluminum—durable, lightweight, and built to last.

What sets the 1776 Gen II apart is its safety-first engineering. The double-action mechanism includes a built-in resistance check: if the blade encounters any obstruction during deployment, it stops before fully locking. That means if it accidentally opens in your pocket, you won't have a fully deployed blade cutting through fabric or gear. Simply pull the blade to the locked position to reset and get back to work. This smart fail-safe is exactly what you want in a tactical knife you carry daily.

The package rounds out with practical field features: an integrated glass breaker for emergency situations, a pocket clip for secure carry, and a nylon sheath for safe storage. Whether you're cutting rope at the range, doing gear maintenance in the field, or need a dependable blade for EDC, the Templar 1776 Gen II delivers without unnecessary bulk or complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OTF and how does the double-action mechanism work?

OTF (out-the-front) means the blade deploys forward from the handle, rather than pivoting like a folding knife. The double-action mechanism in the Templar 1776 Gen II fires the blade out when you press the firing button and retracts it when you press the button again—fast, intuitive, and dependable.

Is this knife safe to carry in a pocket?

Yes. The 1776 Gen II has a built-in safety feature that stops the blade if it encounters resistance before it locks fully out. So if the knife accidentally opens in your pocket, the blade won't deploy all the way. You can reset it by pulling the blade to the locked position.

What's included with the knife?

The package includes the Templar Knife SBRF331 1776 Gen II, a pocket clip for carry, a glass breaker built into the handle, and a nylon sheath for storage and transport.

What is 440C stainless steel and how does it perform?

440C is a mid-range stainless steel known for good corrosion resistance and edge retention. It's a practical choice for general cutting tasks in field and tactical use. The stonewashed black oxide finish adds durability and reduces reflective glare.
