Product Description
Milwaukee 3 in. HARDLINE Serrated Blade Pocket Knife
Model Number: 48-22-1998
The Milwaukee 48-22-1998 is the 3 in. HARDLINE Serrated Blade Pocket Knife — a compact premium folding knife from Milwaukee's HARDLINE series featuring a serrated blade for the cutting tasks where serrations outperform smooth blades. Milwaukee's HARDLINE premium blade steel delivers the edge retention that professional daily-use demands — maintaining cutting effectiveness significantly longer than standard knife steel for the sustained cutting performance tradespeople need from a daily-carry knife without constant resharpening interruptions. The serrated blade is the right choice for cutting rope, webbing, electrical cable bundling, braided straps, and fibrous materials where serrated teeth saw through individual fibers with each tooth's forward edge as the blade is drawn through the material in a sawing motion — producing cleaner separation in fibrous materials than smooth blades that compress and deflect the fibers rather than cutting them cleanly.
At 3 in. blade length, the HARDLINE Serrated strikes the practical balance between adequate cutting capability for the daily cutting tasks a tradesperson encounters and compact pocket-friendly carry dimensions for comfortable all-day belt carry. The folding design stores the serrated blade safely within the handle for pocket carry without the exposed blade hazard of fixed serrated knives, and allows one-hand opening for immediate deployment when a cutting task arises. The serrated edge is complementary to the smooth-blade HARDLINE in the same blade length (48-22-1997 for 2.5 in., 48-22-1999 for 3.5 in.) — the two blade profiles serve different cutting situations encountered in daily trade work, and having both available provides complete cutting versatility for every material encountered.
