Medford TBF Configurator & Explorer

The TBF slashed onto the scene 13 years ago & a cult following grew...

Greg's feeling a bit nostalgic at the moment and is revisiting his favorite designs with some sexy updates and improvements. We got our hands on the last of the American-made CPM D2 and thought it would be straight up gangster to get back to our roots a bit (sort of) but with an impossibly rare steel type and cool handle, hilt and sheath upgrades for you savages...

Production Run: 50 CPM D2

Lead Time: 180 Days

Medford TBF Vertical
Attitude adjuster/ Breaker
01

Attitude adjuster/ Breaker

The hardened pommel breaker on the TBF isn’t a gimmick—it’s a sharp force penetrator, glass-shatterer, and last-ditch tool of survival. When things get primal, the TBF can rise to your needs.

G10 Handles
02

Radius G10 Handles

New this year, reflecting Greg’s obsession with organic shapes and feel, these G10 scales are machined with a radius that fits your hand like a glove. The multi-layer G-10 colors (Same as the Marines use on their M-45) are revealed through the precise machining here in our factory on the Daytron. Durable, grippy, and sculpted for the perfect ergonomics.

Titanium Hilt
03

Titanium Hilt

The new precision-machined titanium hilt features the chemical symbol of Titanium and will in no way chemically interact with your blade’s steel over the decades. Not only does it guard your hand during hard use and function as a pry-tool but it easily breaks down for disassembly and cleaning. The use of Titanium allows us to make a fractionally lighter part that is precision milled to fit perfectly without any compromise in functionality and without the added heat treat step and subsequent thermal distortion that made fitment so tricky in the original production runs.

Forward-raked dual row Sawteeth
04

Forward-raked dual row Sawteeth

The sawteeth on the spine are designed for real-world utility—cutting through wood, PVC, or any similar type of soft-ish materials in a pinch. Deburred enough to not impede normal use and radiused at the bottom of each tooth to diffuse stress points during batoning. The milled center channel between the teeth helps clear cut material from the cutting path. Functional, brutal, and field-tested.

Compound Grind Blade
05

Compound Grind Blade

The TBF sports a fully hand ground compound grind main edge and false edge—done right here in our shop. The handle is full tang and virtually indestructible. That not only looks cool but offers an elegant hollow-ground main cutting edge, with flat ground cross sectional geometry out front near the tip, for ultimate tip strength. No shortcuts. Just American steel, built to serve.
