Product Description 

Urban Tactical. Marine Corps Tough.

Adapt to any environment with the USMC M-A3005GY Spring Assisted Knife, an officially licensed tactical folder designed for those who demand reliability. This model features a distinct Wolf Grey handle, offering a sleek, low-profile aesthetic that blends perfectly with urban gear or modern tactical loadouts.

Engineered for rapid response, the knife deploys a 3.5-inch Tanto blade made from rugged 3Cr13 stainless steel. The blade sports a two-tone finish (black coating with satin flats) and aggressive spine serrations capable of sawing through heavy rope or webbing. Whether for duty, survival, or everyday carry (EDC), the M-A3005GY stands ready with the iconic "Marines: The Few. The Proud." motto etched on the blade.

• Multi-Mission Capability: The Tanto point pierces with ease, the straight edge slices cleanly, and the sawback spine handles the rough work—all in one blade.

Frequently Asked Question 

Q: What is the "sawback" feature on this knife?

A: The "sawback" refers to the aggressive serrations cut into the spine (top edge) of the blade. Unlike standard serrations on the sharp edge, these are designed for heavy-duty sawing tasks, such as cutting through thick rope, wood notches, or tough webbing, without dulling your primary blade.

Q: Is the grey handle made of metal?

A: No, the handle is crafted from injection-molded nylon fiber. This material is lightweight, extremely durable, and resistant to temperature changes, making it comfortable to hold in both freezing cold and blistering heat.

Q: Does the M-A3005GY open automatically?

A: No, it is spring-assisted. You must manually apply pressure to the finger flipper to start the blade's movement. Once you initiate the opening, an internal spring takes over to fully deploy and lock the blade.
