At 2.70 oz on the AXIS Lock, it is the Bailout doing what the Bailout was built for — in a seasonal colorway that makes it worth owning twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe blade is ground from\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCPM-S90V\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e— Crucible's particle metallurgy stainless steel engineered for maximum wear resistance and edge retention through a high vanadium content that creates exceptionally hard carbides resistant to edge wear. At 59-61 HRC  with a flat grind at 0.090\" thin, this is a blade that holds a working edge longer than virtually every other production stainless available. The tanto profile combines a primary edge optimized for general cutting with a secondary edge and reinforced tip for penetration tasks — the puncturing tip the Bailout is known for, backed by enough belly on the primary edge for genuine slicing utility. The FDE Battlewash PVD finish is a physical vapor deposition coating in a warm Flat Dark Earth tone with a Battlewash worn treatment that gives the blade a field-worn surface character consistent with the seasonal palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe Taiga Green aluminum handle is textured — not smooth like the Bugout's bolsters — providing a more aggressive grip surface at 0.39\" thin and 4.69\" long. Dual thumb studs with a bronze washer pivot provide ambidextrous opening; Burnt Copper hardware accents the pivot, screws, and hardware details throughout. A lanyard loop at the butt end provides retention options. The AXIS Lock deploys and closes ambidextrously. The reversible Mini Deep Carry clip mounts tip-up for left or right carry.
