For four months, I used the Dundee model, but over time, the blade's bad geometry started to bother me. The Dundee splits rather than cuts, for example, an apple, so I switched to the Flick model, which cuts much better. The blade does not have a bulge that serves only for aesthetics, as in the Dundee. This bulge disrupts the geometry. The Flick's blade is flat. At first, I rejected this model because visually it reminded me of a 'kitchen knife.' Over time, I think the Flick is a better design. When folded, it is slim, carries well, light, the mechanics are great, and it has a much better-working blade. The finger cutout in the handle is also more comfortable than in the Dundee. From now on, the Dundee stays in the drawer. Flick in the pocket.

D2 tool steel
Forged from D2 tool steel, the blade delivers exceptional edge retention, superior strength, and outstanding resistance to chipping. With properties that surpass typical high-carbon steels, corrosion resistance is also notably improved.
Drop-Point blade, flat grind, PVD coating
Equipped with a blade featuring a Drop-Point profile, the model offers a blade length of 88.7 mm and a thickness of 3.2 mm. A flat grind enhances its cutting efficiency. For added protection against corrosion and to minimize glare, the blade is finished with a black PVD coating and receives an additional stonewashed finish.
Flipper, ceramic ball bearings, Liner Lock mechanism
Featuring a flipper for one-handed deployment, the knife ensures swift, effortless opening. A ceramic ball bearing positioned at the primary axis of the knife further improves the action. For secure use, the blade is locked in place by a straightforward Liner Lock mechanism.
G10 scales, steel clip
The ergonomically contoured handle scales are crafted from G10 laminate, which offers strong resistance to mechanical impacts and environmental elements. The non-slip surface provides a reliable and firm hold during operation.
A spring steel clip in the tip-up orientation ensures comfortable everyday carry, allowing seamless attachment of the knife to a pocket edge or belt. The clip is designed for mounting on either the left or right side.

A project related to the Dundee. Slightly bigger, a bit lighter, more practical blade because it's without nooks and also cheaper (on a New Year's promotion). Lots of color variants. Before buying, you can try it out in a physical store.
