Description
The Strider D9 BOS Mark Tiger Stripe Tactical Fixed Blade is an early discontinued classic from Strider Knives, representing the brand’s uncompromising hard-use philosophy and military-inspired design language. Built as a heavy-duty fixed blade for extreme environments, the D9 combines rugged construction, premium steel treatment, and proven tactical ergonomics, making it highly respected among Strider collectors.
The blade features premium CPM-S30V stainless steel with the famous Paul Bos Heat Treat (BOS Heat Treat) process. The blade is marked with the distinctive BOS flame logo, a highly recognized symbol among early Strider knives and a detail valued by collectors for its connection to superior heat treatment and performance. The iconic Tiger Stripe finish reduces reflection while helping hide field wear, giving the knife a classic tactical appearance.
The blade uses a versatile Clip Point design, providing excellent piercing capability while maintaining strong cutting performance. The spine features aggressive thumb jimping for improved control, while the integrated double guard structure enhances safety and grip stability during demanding use.
The handle features durable black G10 scales, offering excellent traction in wet or harsh environments. The full-size design provides a secure grip and balances the heavy-duty blade profile, making the D9 a true field tool rather than a purely collectible piece. The knife comes with a matching nylon sheath for practical carry.
With an overall length of approximately 33.3 cm, a blade length of approximately 19 cm, and a weight of around 456 g, the Strider D9 belongs to the category of serious heavy-duty tactical fixed blades. Since the D9 has been discontinued and early BOS-marked examples are increasingly difficult to find, this version carries both historical significance and strong collector value among Strider enthusiasts.
