The Templar Knife SUS231 Gen II US Flag OTF Tanto is a compact, reliable out-of-the-front knife built for everyday carry, tactical use, and field work. With a 2.69" 440C stainless steel blade in a tanto point profile, this knife delivers a sharp, durable edge in a form factor that fits comfortably in a pocket or pack.

OTF knives deploy fast and reliably with one hand, making the SUS231 Gen II ideal for situations where you need to draw and cut without fumbling. The 440C blade material holds an edge well and resists corrosion, and the stonewashed finish gives it a functional, worn-in aesthetic. Whether you're processing game in the field, working around camp, or simply want a sharp blade on your belt, this knife handles the job without fuss.
Templar Knife built this model with both function and patriotic style in mind. The US flag aluminum handle makes it instantly recognizable, and the included pocket clip and sheath give you options for carry depending on your situation and preference. At 4.31" closed length, it's compact enough to tuck away but substantial enough to get real work done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this knife be used for self-defense or emergency situations?
The OTF deployment and sharp blade make this knife suitable for self-defense, and the integrated glass breaker adds an emergency tool for situations where you need to break glass or escape a vehicle. As with any blade, local laws regarding OTF knife carry vary; check your jurisdiction before carrying.
