The set comes with three blade types (drop point, saw and tanto), and a hard-sided blade case. MSRP: $49.99; true.acgbrands.com.

The 3¾-inch clip-point blade is made of heat-treated S30V steel. MSRP: $145.99; buckknives.com.

Owning a 3½-inch, clip-point blade made of CPM-154 steel featuring Benchmade’s super-sharp SelectEdge treatment, this blade was born to cut meat. Its highly visible hunter orange handle makes the Taggedout hard to lose, and the reversible pocket clip provides an option for both left- and right-side carry. MSRP: $190; benchmade.com.
