Best Factory Tactical at BLADE Show Texas 2023, this completely symmetrical dagger is ready to highlight your collection or serve dutifully on a deployment. The first feature you’ll notice is the dual pocket clips allowing for carry on either side of your person straight out of the box. For EDC, this may seem like overkill but for a tactical design, this should be the norm. The blade itself is just exquisite, a single-edge dagger with phenomenal grind lines and more than enough length. The frame lock and finger grooves near the butt end will indicate which end the blade deploys from and that will definitely improve with time. The Diatomic is a knife many will try to emulate over the coming years but few if any will succeed, it’s next-level incredible.
