Hogue Ballista II Automatic Knife - 2.60" CPM MagnaCut Stone Tumbled Bayonet Blade - Matte Gray Anodized Aluminum Handles with Cocobolo Wood Inlays (64233)
Overview & Heritage: The Hogue Ballista II Automatic (64233) is an ultra-refined, rapid-deploying tactical and gentlemanly everyday carry (EDC) automatic folding knife. Proudly handcrafted in Henderson, Nevada, USA, the Ballista II builds upon Hogue's long-standing reputation for precision engineering and world-class firearm accessories. This specialized edition pairs revolutionary powder-metallurgy super steel with sleek 6061-T6 aluminum handles and warm, natural Cocobolo wood inlays. Engineered for duty personnel, EDC purists, and knife connoisseurs, the 64233 delivers blistering push-button deployment, compact carry proportions, and timeless aesthetic sophistication.
Blade & Performance: Outfitted with a versatile 2.60-inch bayonet-style blade forged from revolutionary CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, the 64233 provides an unmatched combination of top-tier edge retention, high impact toughness, and near-total rust immunity. The blade features a working stone tumbled finish that effectively masks wear and daily micro-scuffs from tough cutting tasks. Fired instantaneously via a high-tension internal coil spring and an ergonomic push-button release, its dagger-inspired bayonet geometry and reinforced tip excel at high-speed slicing, piercing, package opening, and detailed utility chores.
Handle, Lock & Ergonomics: The handle scales are precision 3D-milled from lightweight, high-strength 6061-T6 billet aluminum finished in a smooth Matte Gray anodization. Accentuated with rich, genuine Cocobolo hardwood scale inlays, the handle delivers an unshakeable, ergonomic grip with an elegant contrast of high-tech alloy and natural organic warmth. Operating on a smooth pivot with an integrated manual slide safety lock, the mechanism prevents accidental button actuation during pocket transport. Complete with a reversible deep-carry pocket clip, the Ballista II offers discreet, low-profile daily carry.
*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
CPM MagnaCut is an industry-leading American stainless super steel offering exceptional corrosion resistance and edge holding capability. Keep the automatic action fire-ready by periodically blowing out pocket lint from the button housing and pivot using compressed air, followed by a single drop of high-grade synthetic pivot lubricant. Wipe down the stone tumbled blade with a soft microfiber cloth, and preserve the Cocobolo wood inlays using a small drop of mineral oil or wood conditioner as needed.
