Frequently Asked Questions
Is this knife compatible with MOLLE webbing?
Yes, the MALICE CLIP system is designed for direct attachment to MOLLE webbing on plate carriers, chest rigs, and tactical packs.
What makes CPM-S30V steel good for tactical use?

How does the out-the-front mechanism work?
The spring-loaded mechanism deploys the blade forward through the handle tip with thumb pressure on the slide. The same slide retracts the blade for safe carry.

The deep-carry MALICE CLIP is positioned for tip-down carry, keeping the knife secure and the handle accessible.
