The HME Super Lite Replaceable Blade Tanto delivers field-ready cutting performance with the convenience of swappable blades. This tactical knife eliminates downtime from blade maintenance while providing the piercing capability that tanto designs are known for.
What Makes This Different
Unlike fixed-blade knives that require sharpening or replacement when dulled, this system uses replaceable razor-sharp blades that swap out in seconds. The tanto point geometry concentrates force at the tip for superior penetration through tough materials. Each blade maintains factory sharpness until replacement, ensuring consistent cutting performance throughout extended use.

Field testing shows the replaceable blade system maintains cutting efficiency across various materials from rope and webbing to cardboard and plastic sheeting.
