5.5″ Tactical Bastinelli Doug Marcaida 440C Steel Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath

5.5″ Tactical Bastinelli & Doug Marcaida Collaboration Fixed Blade – 440C Steel Ring Knife

When world-class martial arts expertise meets elite tactical knife design, the result is nothing short of a masterpiece. Our 5.5″ Bastinelli & Doug Marcaida Fixed Blade Knife is a premium defensive and utility tool designed for immediate response, comfort, and uncompromising security in hand.

Combining the fluid design philosophies of Doug Marcaida (renowned martial artist and Forged in Fire judge) and Bastinelli’s signature tactical styling, this compact fixed blade is built to become a seamless extension of your hand. Machined from high-grade 440C stainless steel, it is the perfect low-profile addition to your everyday carry (EDC) or tactical gear setup.

Why This Tactical Fixed Blade Stands Out

1. Unbreakable Ring-Tail Security

The hallmark of this collaboration is the integrated finger ring at the butt of the handle. This allows you to lock your index or pinky finger into the grip, making it virtually impossible for an adversary to disarm you, or for your hand to slip forward onto the cutting edge during hard use. It also allows you to drop the blade to your knuckles to free your hands for other tasks without sheathing the knife.

2. High-Grade 440C Stainless Steel

Built for real-world reliability, the blade is crafted from premium 440C stainless steel. Known for its fantastic resistance to rust, moisture, and sweat, 440C is highly durable and holds a biting, razor-sharp edge while remaining remarkably easy to hone and maintain in the field.

3. Ergonomic, Low-Profile Geometry

At a highly agile 5.5 inches, this knife is engineered to sit comfortably flat against your body. The handle is contoured to fit the palm naturally, while the textured scales provide an aggressive grip in wet, cold, or muddy conditions. It offers maximum cutting and piercing power in a compact, highly concealable footprint.

4. Secure, Rapid-Deploy Sheath

No tactical knife is complete without a reliable carry system. This knife includes a custom-molded, hard-shell sheath designed for a secure “click-lock” fit. Outfitted with a heavy-duty pocket/belt clip, it can be mounted inside the waistband (IWB), on your belt, or woven into tactical gear for a fast, intuitive draw.
