A folding knife designed for everyday carry (EDC) by John Kubasek. The blade features a drop point profile and is crafted from Nitro-V steel, a variant of AEB-L steel that is enhanced with nitrogen and vanadium for increased toughness, superior corrosion resistance, and excellent edge retention. The blade's satin finish provides a sleek, semi-matte appearance.
Easy deployment of the blade is facilitated by a flipper, which doubles as a small cross guard when open, offering protection by preventing the hand from slipping forward. Smooth and efficient blade action is ensured by ball bearings.
A robust Frame Lock mechanism guarantees user safety. Enhanced grip is provided by jimping on the thumb rest, effectively minimizing the risk of finger slippage onto the blade.
The handle, constructed from stainless steel, comes with a sturdy tip-up clip for convenient attachment to a belt or pocket.
A nylon sheath is included with the knife.
