Product Description

Refined Style. Tactical Speed.

This Tac Force Speedster Model bridges the gap between a traditional folding pocket knife and a modern tactical tool. Featuring a handsome Pakkawood inlay handle contrasted against a brushed stainless steel bolster, this knife offers a sophisticated gentleman's look without sacrificing performance.

Underneath the wood finish lies a rapid spring-assisted deployment system. A quick pull on the finger flipper or a nudge of the dual thumb studs sends the 3-inch black stainless steel drop-point blade flying open, locking securely with a steel liner lock.

Compact, lightweight, and sharp, the TF-469 is the ideal Everyday Carry (EDC) for those who appreciate a knife that looks as good as it cuts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is the wood handle real wood?

Yes, the TF-469 features Pakkawood inlays. Pakkawood is an engineered wood/resin composite that offers the beauty of natural wood grain but is far more resistant to moisture, warping, and cracking.

Is this a switchblade?

No, this is a spring-assisted knife. It requires you to manually initiate the blade opening (via the flipper or thumb stud) before the internal spring takes over. It is legal in most US states where switchblades are restricted.

How do I clean the wood handle?

Simply wipe the handle with a clean, dry cloth after use. Occasionally applying a small amount of mineral oil to the wood inlay will keep the grain looking vibrant and prevent it from drying out.

2 months

It finely arrived 2 months later very, poor communication, nice product if you don't need it right away , probably some guy by himself working out of his home doing the old "buy and sell" which is fine but horrible business person.

Ignored by customer service

Almost adequate. Not a bad piece but unfortunately the quality control lacking. One side of the pakkawood handle is chipped on the underside and wobbles while the other side is fine. Initially frame lock was not secure but is overcome if blade is opened more forcefully. Not sure why my issues were not addressed via my email but apparently company chose not to respond to me. If an improved replacement was sent I would have improved rating. The 2 other knives I ordered have still not arrived. Perhaps this review will be noticed and responded to? Not encouraging tho. Will try to cancel credit card charge and see if that gets noticed.
