At a glance
The Covert Deluxe is noticeably lighter at 365g versus 425g and built on Warrior's proven elite platform, but the Blackout is way more affordable at $140 and offers a much wider curve selection across 8 blade patterns. If weight and low-kick performance are priorities and budget is not a concern, the Deluxe wins, but most players will feel the Blackout punches well above its price.
