Hogue Knives’ EX01 Tactical Folder from their Extreme Series is now available as an automatic opening knife. The action is smooth and lockup tight via the button lock mechanism. There is also a front mounted safety to lock the blade. The black G-10 handle features a pattern the creators call “G-mascus” (G-10 & Damascus). The front of the handle has piranha texture for a better grip and a large reversible pocket clip on back for tip-down or up carry. The drop point style 154-CM tactical black finished blade has a razor sharp plain edge.
Hogue, well known for the gun grips, has ventured into the knife world with the introduction of the Extreme Series, designed by Allen Elishewitz. The knives look good, they are comfortable and the function and action is beyond reproach.

Great knife, but the clip is a bit stiff. It’s been a week, and it’s still hard to slide into my pocket. Otherwise, no complaints—the blade is fantastic.

The Hogue EX-A01 is a solid knife, but it took a while to break in the automatic mechanism. Once it did, it worked like a charm. Great for everyday use.
