The KA-BAR TDI Pocket Strike 2491 offers the stability of a fixed blade with the convenient carry of a folding knife. John Benner of the Tactical Defense Institute designed this unique tool to deploy instantly from a standard pant pocket. Consequently, it provides a lightning-fast defensive option without the need to manipulate locks or flippers under stress.
Specifically, the TDI Pocket Strike features a finger ring that allows for a secure grip and rapid draw. The specialized hard plastic sheath hooks onto your pocket seam, ensuring the knife stays properly oriented for immediate access. Its AUS 8A stainless steel blade is durable and easy to maintain.
If you prefer a belt-mounted option with a more aggressive blade profile for defense, check out the KA-BAR TDI Hell Fire 2486. You can also learn more about their innovative carry systems at the official KA-BAR homepage.
