Product Description:
The Kizer Vanguard Bulldog V3672A1 is a bold and compact everyday carry (EDC) knife designed by O. SHO, winner of the Kizer "Kizer X You" design contest. Engineered for both tactical performance and practical use, this knife is built to handle demanding tasks with ease while maintaining a sleek and aggressive look. Its ergonomic handle, smooth action, and durable materials make it a reliable tool for anyone looking for a high-performance folding knife.
Precision-Engineered Blade for Maximum Performance
The 3.00-inch Nitro-V stainless steel blade is crafted for superior sharpness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. This high-quality steel ensures that the Bulldog can take on everything from everyday cutting tasks to rugged outdoor use. The sheepsfoot blade design is perfect for precise slicing, controlled push cuts, and utility work, making it safer than a standard drop-point blade while providing excellent cutting power. The blade's black PVD-coated finish enhances wear resistance, reduces glare, and adds a tactical edge to its appearance.
Ergonomic & Durable Handle Construction
Designed for maximum comfort and control, the handle is made from precision-machined black aluminum, keeping the knife lightweight yet incredibly strong. Its deep finger grooves ensure a secure, non-slip grip, even in wet or demanding conditions. The handle’s contoured edges make extended use more comfortable, reducing hand fatigue. At 4.22 inches when closed, it fits perfectly in your pocket while still offering a full grip for precision cutting.
Clutch Lock & Smooth Deployment
One of the standout features of the Bulldog is the Clutch Lock system, an advanced crossbar-style locking mechanism that provides a rock-solid lock-up and allows for safe, easy blade operation. Unlike traditional liner or frame locks, this system allows for smooth, ambidextrous one-handed operation, making it perfect for both right- and left-handed users. The dual thumb studs enable effortless deployment, while the ball-bearing pivot system ensures an ultra-smooth, quick action when opening or closing the knife.
