It fires a 3.51\" black DLC-coated CPM-CruWear tanto blade from sage green Grivory handles, accented with a gold anodized release button. At just 2.80 oz with a deep-carry reversible clip, the Shootout is one of the lightest full-size OTF knives made in the USA, built for reliable deployment in real work rather than shelf display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade length: 3.51\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade steel: CPM-CruWear tool steel, 63-65 HRC, black DLC coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade style: tanto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade thickness: 0.100\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle: sage green Grivory, gold anodized slide button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAction: dual-action out-the-front automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length: 8.22\", closed 4.71\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2.80 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClip: deep-carry, reversible, tip-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat does OTF mean in knives?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOTF stands for out-the-front. On the Benchmade Shootout 5370BK-07, the blade deploys straight out of the front of the handle at the push of a slide, rather than pivoting out of the side like a conventional folder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow does the dual-action OTF mechanism work?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Shootout 5370BK-07 is a dual-action OTF automatic: pushing the slide forward fires the blade out and locks it, and pulling the same slide back retracts it. No manual blade handling is needed in either direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIn what states are OTF knives legal?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutomatic knife laws vary by state and city, and some places restrict blade length or carry method. Before purchasing or carrying the Benchmade Shootout 5370BK-07, check your state and local laws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIs CPM-CruWear stainless steel, and how do I care for it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The CPM-CruWear blade in the Benchmade Shootout 5370BK-07 is a high-toughness tool steel, not a stainless steel. The DLC coating protects the flats, but wipe the edge dry after use and keep a light film of oil on it to prevent corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDoes Benchmade offer free sharpening for the Shootout?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
