The handle is 5.25&#8243; with G10 scales, larger or gloved hands should be able to comfortably fit this grip with ease. From what I can tell, the Stinger XL is overbuilt and made for everyday hard use. The knifes name itself is derived from the FIM-92 Stinger Surface to Air Missile, a heavy duty and portable tactical defense\u00a0weapon. While the name is pretty tacti-cool, I just do not want to get stung by it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">The Stinger XL rides deep in your pocket with the option of left-hand carry.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6073 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mytacticaledc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/stinger2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"679\" height=\"667\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">The 4-inch blade has a tumbled DLC Gray wash look with 4mm thick 154CM blade stock makes the XL heavy duty blade. It is a great looking knife and so far, Off-Grids Knives has been putting out some solid edc blades. Seeing that Coyote is one of my favorite knife colors, I think I may check one out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Design <\/b>Off-Grid Knives<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>OEM <\/b>Taiwan<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Mechanical<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Knife Mechanism <\/b><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.offgridknives.com\/ball-bearing-flipper-knives\/\">Ball Bearing<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Locking Mechanism <\/b>Liner Lock<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Opening Mechanism <\/b>Flipper<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Blade Length (in.) <\/b>4<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Blade Width (in.) <\/b>1.4<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Blade Thickness (mm) <\/b>4<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Blade Hardness (HRC) <\/b>61<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Blade Material <\/b>154CM<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Blade Style <\/b>Spear Point<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Blade Color <\/b>Gray<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Blade Finish <\/b>Gray wash DLC<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Blade Edge <\/b>Plain Edge<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>Handle Length (in.) <\/b>5.25<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Handle Color<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3EA663s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coyote<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong>Handle Material<\/strong> G10<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Pocket Clip, Left &amp; Right Carry<\/strong> Yes<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Countersunk Screws<\/strong> Yes<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>PRICE<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ijSUrO\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$120<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n<p class=\"p6\">\n<p class=\"p6\"><em>A Chicago native, Sijo Wayson Johnny Tsai is an internationally recognized Combatives and Survival instructor.
