Very handy, compact folder. Wide, utilitarian blade, comfortable handle, and a well-designed lock. Flipper plus assisted opening - opens strongly and smoothly. A very successful model for EDC.
A practical folding knife (folder) engineered for Every Day Carry (EDC), crafted by Brazilian knife designer Flavio Ikoma. Featuring a Drop-Point blade made from AUS-10 steel, known for its exceptional toughness and resistance to corrosion. The blade sports a full flat grind and is finished with a black EDP coating to defend against rust and minimize unwanted reflections.
Deployment of the blade is achieved via a flipper, supported by the IKBS bearing system, ensuring exceptionally smooth opening action. A Deadbolt lock secures the blade in the open position and prevents unintentional closure. Additional safety is provided by a jimped thumb rest on the spine of the blade, delivering greater control during use.
The handle features G10 laminate scales, offering a reliable non-slip grip. Ergonomic finger grooves and textured scales ensure a firm hold, while a deep-carry steel clip allows convenient attachment to a belt or pocket edge.
