Darter Tanto Shadow Black
The Darter® Tanto was a natural evolution from the original Darter. The tanto blade design delivers tactical versatility with specialized efficiency for stabbing and piercing knife tasks. Since the initial launch in 2020, the Darter has become one of the most unique fighting blades to ever hit the tactical market by combining Haley Strategic founder Travis Haley’s tactical experience with Toor Knives premium bladesmithing capabilities.

The Darter is a purpose-built field-use blade perfect for tactical kit or everyday carry. Constructed with CPM S35VN steel and heat-treated to approximately 60 Rockwell, the Darter is stout enough to tackle any task and features iconic reverse serrations on the spine offering an extremely sharp solution to fighting with the back of the knife. The blade is treated with a KG Gunkote spray finish increasing corrosion resistance and includes Haley Strategic and Toor Knives laser-engraved logos. Thumb jimping on the spine and butt end of the blade provide improved knife handling.
The Shadow Black Darter Tanto is fitted with black G10 handles and blood red liners. The G10 handles are textured to match the wing pattern of the namesake, Darter Dragonfly, and provide excellent grip when operating in wet conditions. The handle also features a retention lanyard hole and stainless steel Torx screws for secure carry in aquatic environments.
All Darters include Toor Knives KYDEX® sheath, featuring a retention adjustability screw and friction offset to reduce rattle inside the sheath. The sheath includes mounting hardware and an UltiClip Slim 3.3 mount with a laser-cut loop designed to sandwich the sheath securely into your gear.
Last, but not least, every Darter is finished with an individual serial number marking a piece of history from this iconic partnership. These knives are tools of a warrior, works of art, and extremely collectible.
Note: Due to the nature of G10 handle materials, dye lots may vary from what is pictured.
