The Great Lakes Firearms GLFA Medium OTF delivers reliable automatic deployment with a 3.5-inch plain steel blade and military-grade Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish. This out-the-front knife combines tactical functionality with everyday carry practicality for professionals and enthusiasts who demand consistent performance.
What Makes This Different
The GLFA Medium features a dual-action OTF mechanism that fires and retracts with equal force, eliminating the weak retraction common in budget automatic knives. The Cerakote aluminum handle provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard anodized finishes, while the medium profile balances blade length with pocket-friendly dimensions. The plain edge configuration maintains sharpness longer than serrated alternatives and simplifies field maintenance.Key Features
