Auxiliary Manufacturing Karl

The Auxiliary Manufacturing Karl is Aux Mfg's full-size duty knife, developed with a Chicago police officer and named Best Custom Tactical Knife at Blade Show West 2022. It carries a 4 in drop point blade with a fine point for control and plenty of belly for slicing, mounted to a stepped, contoured handle with a parrot-beak butt that locks into your grip.

This example has a two-tone handle: Tiffany blue scales up front transitioning to textured carbon fiber at the pommel, over a stonewashed CPM-154 blade. CPM-154 is a powder-metallurgy stainless steel known for excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, making the Karl a knife you can put to work and keep looking sharp.
