High-end knifemaker Todd Rexford created the new Rexford RUT V3, a tactical folding knife that is affordable yet award-winning.
Made with a titanium body, the newly updated design offers a #2 flathead screwdriver, bottle opener, can opener, mini pry bar and an easy-to-clean yet stylish blacked-out blade. Each knife comes with a backup blade that is shipped with every order, just in case of emergencies. By adding a bit driver incorporated directly into the split-ring hole, the new knife features inner mechanisms that improve blade control in an open or closed position. The body offers a sleek design that brings forward a unique style that is rarely seen on a classic pocket knife.
The Rexford RUT V3 is available online now for $165.
