Olight Mettle 3 Black EDC Knife CPM-S35VN Blade TC4 Titanium Handle
The Olight Mettle 3 Button Lock Black is a premium everyday carry (EDC) folding knife designed for reliable performance, safety, and style. Engineered with a modern button-lock mechanism, it offers a secure blade lockup and a smooth, satisfying one‑handed operation.
Key design highlights:
-
Button lock system. Unlike traditional liner locks, the button lock keeps your fingers well away from the blade path during closing, enhancing safety—especially for less experienced users.
-
Ergonomic black aluminum handle. The contoured shape and textured surface provide a confident, non‑slip grip even in wet or greasy conditions.
-
Satin-finished S35VN stainless steel blade. This high-end steel offers excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The satin finish reduces glare and hides minor scratches.
-
Drop-point blade profile. A versatile shape ideal for everyday cutting tasks—from opening packages to outdoor use. The pointed tip is also useful for precision work.
-
Deep-carry pocket clip. The reversible clip allows left- or right-side carry, and the deep-carry design keeps the knife discreetly tucked in your pocket.
-
Smooth operation. Precision machining and quality components ensure a buttery-smooth blade deployment with a satisfying click when locked.
Overall, the Mettle 3 strikes a balance between robust functionality and sleek, modern aesthetics. It’s equally at home in an office, workshop, or outdoors.
