Tekto A2 Badger Mini T/E Carbon Fiber/Aluminum, Black Titanium D2 OTF automatic knife (A2S_CFBK_D2BK2_A1) is a compact OTF automatic knife featuring a D2 steel Tanto blade, a handle combining carbon fiber with 6061-T6 aluminum, and a Double Action mechanism. Its small size and weight of 62.00 g make this model well-suited for use as a lightweight EDC knife.
The 47.00 mm blade has a flat grind and a smooth cutting edge. The D2 steel is coated with a black titanium finish, and the thumb slide is used to both extend and retract the blade. The design is complemented by a double-sided tip-down clip, a glass breaker, and a lanyard hole.
D2 58–60 HRC and Flat Grind
The blade is made of D2 Tool Steel, hardened to 58–60 HRC. The flat grind provides a versatile cutting geometry, and the Plain edge performs well during precision cutting and everyday utility tasks.
Tanto and Black Titanium Coating
The Tanto profile is distinguished by a strong tip and a clearly defined transition between the main part of the edge and the tip section. The blade is coated with a black titanium coating, which gives it a uniform, technical look and complements the black handle well.
Carbon Fiber, 6061-T6 Aluminum, and Double Action OTF
The handle combines Carbon Fiber with a 6061-T6 aluminum body, ensuring the construction remains lightweight and rigid. The Double Action OTF mechanism allows you to extend and retract the blade using the same thumb slide, without having to manually retract the blade.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for D2 steel?
D2 has good wear resistance, but it is not completely stainless. After use, it is a good idea to clean the blade and dry it thoroughly; for long-term storage, protect it with a thin layer of a suitable preservative.
How to sharpen a Tanto blade?
It’s best to sharpen each section of the edge separately, maintaining a consistent angle and carefully controlling the transition between the main part of the blade and the front section of the Tanto. This helps preserve the blade’s characteristic geometry.
How does the Double Action OTF mechanism work?
Sliding the thumb slide causes the blade to automatically extend from the front of the handle. Moving the slide in the opposite direction automatically retracts the blade into the body.
How do you clean the OTF mechanism?
The opening through which the blade extends, as well as the area around the slide, should be regularly cleaned of dust, fibers, and other debris. Do not apply large amounts of thick lubricants to the interior of the mechanism, as they could trap contaminants.
How to safely store the Tekto A2 Badger Mini?
The knife should be stored with the blade fully retracted, out of reach of children and unauthorized persons. The included Tekto Pouch makes it easy to secure the knife during transport and storage.
