The Launch 21 brings a bold evolution to the Launch series with tactical performance and rugged design at its core. This automatic folder features a 3.45-inch drop point blade crafted from CPM M4, a high-performance steel prized for extreme hardness, toughness, and edge retention—ideal for demanding cutting tasks. The blade is finished in black PVD for added durability and corrosion resistance. The FDE anodized aluminum handle is enhanced with G10 inserts, oversized jimping, and a finger choil, giving you enhanced grip and control even in tough conditions. A low-profile push button ensures safe deployment, while the deep-carry pocket clip makes this tactical workhorse easy to carry discreetly.
