The knife is nice, well-made, and I carry it every day as my EDC. It is sharp, keeps its edge well, opens very smoothly, its appearance is impressive, and the micarta handle feels good in the hand.
Practical Cataclyst 42 folding knife developed for everyday carry (EDC - Everyday Carry). Outfitted with a blade measuring 4 mm in thickness and 75 mm in length.
Clip-point blade is crafted from premium 440C stainless steel. A flat grind paired with the slender blade profile provides excellent cutting performance.
Knife deployment is made easy with a flipper, which also functions as a small cross guard in the open position, helping prevent your hand from sliding onto the blade. Ball bearings ensure effortless blade action. A Slip Joint mechanism secures the knife when in use.
Handle scales are constructed from robust G10 laminate with a matte finish, offering a reliable grip under any circumstances.
Fitted with a Deep Carry spring steel clip, the knife allows discreet tip-up carry on a belt or pocket edge. An integrated lanyard hole in the rear of the handle provides the option for carrying on a keychain, lanyard, or carabiner for added versatility.
