American Blade Works Model 3 - Button Actuated Liner Lock - Green & Black Frag G-10 - Stonewash MagnaCut Blade

MagnaCut Button Actuated Liner Lock with G-10 Handles

The American Blade Works Model 3 pairs a modern button-actuated liner lock with premium materials, built for users who want a secure deployment system without the complexity of an automatic. This is a manual folder suited to everyday carry and frequent use.

Blade

The 3.375" modified wharncliffe blade is made from MagnaCut steel with a stonewash finish at 0.125" thick. MagnaCut has quickly become a favorite among knife makers for its exceptional balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, outperforming most older premium steels in all three categories at once. The modified wharncliffe profile offers a straight edge with a slight curve near the tip, good for controlled push cuts.

Handle

Green and black frag G-10 scales cover the handle, a fiberglass laminate material pressed under heat and pressure for a rigid, textured grip that holds up in wet or dry conditions. A stainless steel backspacer adds rigidity to the handle construction. Weighing 4.44oz, the knife carries light for its size.

Carry

This is a button actuated liner lock, meaning the blade is released by pressing a button that disengages the internal liner lock bar rather than manually pushing the bar aside. The pivot, pivot screw, and push button are all made from hardened 416 stainless for long-term durability. A titanium pocket clip is mounted for right-hand, tip-up carry only.

Made in the USA.
