Description Badger Blackout
The Badger is Off-Grid’s compact, heavy-duty utility flipper built for daily hard use. It features a wide-bellied, flat-ground blade made from Sandvik 14C28N—a stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance, fine edge stability, and easy maintenance. Unlike tool steels that require more upkeep, 14C28N holds a razor-sharp edge while resisting rust in wet or humid conditions, making it ideal for both urban and outdoor environments. When it’s time to put in serious work, the Grid-Lock™ safety switch locks the blade open, giving you confidence and security in any task.
The Badger is a perfect size for an EDC. Three inch blade and a grippy handle that’s robust, but not too big (or small) that fits well in the hand.Bad MonkeyBuilt for Hard Use, Powered by 14C28N Steel
The Badger is purpose-built for rough use, featuring a wide, fat-bellied blade that’s ready to work. It’s made from Sandvik 14C28N, a high-performance stainless steel developed specifically for knife applications. This steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, very fine grain structure, and enhanced toughness—all while maintaining a razor-sharp edge with solid retention. The tumbled blackwash finish helps conceal wear and gives the blade a non-reflective, tactical look. Sharp right out of the box, the Badger’s broad belly makes it a slicey, highly capable tool for any demanding task.
Fast, Smooth, and Locked In
With a flick of the flipper tab—boosted by grippy jimping—the Badger snaps open with authority. Thanks to precision-tuned ceramic ball bearings, the action is fast, fluid, and locks up with a confident, solid feel every time.
Built for the Field. Ready for Anything.
The Badger is a rugged, do-it-all flipper built to handle whatever comes your way. Whether you’re in the military, law enforcement, fire service, or an EMT, or you’re a hunter, camper, hiker, or survivalist—the Badger’s got your back. It’s also right at home on the job site for electricians, contractors, and everyday tradespeople. Wherever work or adventure takes you, the Badger is always ready to cut, slice, and perform.
Dialed Ergonomics. Locked Grip. Grid-Lock™ Ready.
The Badger’s ergonomic G10 handle is built for control and comfort—grippy texture, a palm-filling swell, and sculpted lines that lock into your hand like it was custom made. Whether you’re working wet, gloved, or bare-handed, the Badger stays put. And when it’s time to get serious, flip the Grid-Lock™ switch to lock the blade in the open position for rock-solid, no-worry performance.
Invisible Carry, Instant Access
The Badger disappears below the pocket line with tip-up left or right-hand carry, keeping things low-profile and ready to deploy. Flush-mounted, recessed screws ensure a snag-free draw every time. We include a bonus pocket clip and T6 screws with every Badger—because having a backup is just smart.
