Hogue Deka MagnaCut Clip Point Folding Knife, Blue 24373

Overview of the Hogue Deka ABLE Lock Folder | 24373

The Hogue Deka ABLE Lock Folder (MPN 24373) gives you premium knife steel in a package light enough to forget you are carrying it. Its 3.25-inch clip point blade is ground from CPM-MagnaCut, a stainless powder steel prized for edge retention, toughness, and rust resistance, then finished with a low-glare stonewash. The blue glass-reinforced polymer handle wears a crosshatch texture for grip, and dual thumb studs let you open the blade with either hand.

Premium Steel, Featherweight Carry

If you have ever fumbled a heavy folder or worried about a lock slipping mid-task, the Deka answers both. The ambidextrous ABLE Lock holds the blade secure whether open or closed and releases with a simple crossbar pull, while the whole knife tips the scale at just 2.1 ounces. A reversible stainless deep-carry clip keeps it riding low and tip-up in your pocket. Designed by former Recon Marine Allen Elishewitz, the Deka (24373) suits EMS providers, patrol officers, tradespeople, and everyday carry users who want serious cutting performance without the bulk.

Specifications

Compatibility

The Deka 24373 is built for daily pocket carry and works well in office, trade, outdoor, and off-duty settings where a compact, corrosion-resistant folder earns its keep. The reversible deep-carry clip supports both left-handed and right-handed users in a tip-up position. Aftermarket handle scales in materials such as G10 and aluminum are made for the Deka platform if you want a grippier or more rigid feel. This is a manual-opening knife, not an automatic, and the polymer scales prioritize light weight over maximum rigidity, so heavy prying and hard-use batoning fall outside its intended scope. Always confirm your local knife-carry laws before daily carry.

Intended Users

Patrol officers, EMS providers, and firefighters appreciate a lightweight backup blade that cuts seatbelts, packaging, and cordage without adding weight to an already loaded duty belt. Security guards and corrections staff value the ambidextrous ABLE Lock for safe one-hand operation during long shifts. Tradespeople, delivery drivers, and outdoor users rely on the corrosion-resistant MagnaCut edge for everyday cutting in wet or dirty conditions. Knife collectors and everyday carry enthusiasts enjoy the Elishewitz design and premium steel at an approachable price.
