Framelock with a tanto blade?

bchan77 · Mar 28, 2011

I am looking for a framelock with a tanto blade (just for the sake of adding variety to my collection), but there doesn't seem to be too many of this around. Can any brother give me some pointers? Thanks.

There are many Striders with Tanto Blades and they are frame locks. Check out the SMF and SnG series. Also the PT model, which is smaller. Here are a few sites you can check out:

There are a few Kershaws as well. Benchmade used to make one or two, but they've been discontinued.

check out one of these, been wanting one for a while, but haven't mustered up the cash yet.

Benchmade 760. Ti-framelock, CPM-M4 blade. Big though, 4 inch blade, 9 inches overall.

There's the XM-18. Not a true tanto, but damn is it a great looking blade shape.

The Benchmade 760 is quite attractive. It would be nice if it is as sharp as the Minionslaught I bought a while ago. Thanks for all the suggestions.

I love the Umnum Tanto!! Probably the best I've seen next to a Bob Lum custom tanto folder.
