The Hogue Expel 2.25" Print Blade Stainless Steel Black knife is a purpose-built folding blade designed for tactical professionals, law enforcement, and military personnel who demand reliable cutting performance in high-stress environments. Built by American craftsmen at Hogue's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, this knife bridges the gap between traditional knife-making excellence and modern tactical application. The compact 2.25-inch blade length makes it ideal for everyday carry (EDC), breaching tasks, and utility cutting without compromising blade geometry or control.

Constructed from premium stainless steel, the blade resists corrosion while maintaining a sharp edge under demanding field conditions—critical for operators working in wet or salt-air environments. The "Print Blade" profile delivers a flat, aggressive edge geometry optimized for slicing and penetration tasks common in tactical and survival scenarios. Weighing only 0.31 pounds, this knife maintains substantial cutting authority without adding unnecessary weight to your tactical loadout, making it an ideal secondary blade or primary EDC option. The black finish reduces light reflection and presentation time, a detail experienced operators understand matters when seconds count.

Law enforcement officers, military personnel, and civilian tactical enthusiasts benefit most from this compact folding design, which integrates seamlessly into loadout vests, ankle carries, or jacket pockets. The 10-inch overall length (closed) ensures TSA-compliant carry in most jurisdictions when traveling. Hogue's renowned attention to ergonomics and manufacturing precision means this blade is equally at home in a breacher's kit, a survival pack, or alongside your EDC pistol and flashlight. Real-world field testing by tactical professionals confirms Hogue's design philosophy: old-world craftsmanship applied to modern operator needs.
