Key Features

• SpeedSafe® Assisted Opening: Enables rapid, smooth, one-handed blade deployment via the thumbstud, allowing for quick access in fast-paced work settings.
• Sandvik 14C28N Stainless Steel Blade: The 3 1/4-inch (8.3 cm) blade is made from Sandvik 14C28N, a high-performance stainless steel developed specifically for knives. This steel offers an excellent balance of edge retention, high hardness, and superior corrosion resistance, ensuring durability and a lasting sharp edge for professional use.
• Translucent G-10 Handle: Constructed from machined, natural G-10, the semi-translucent handle provides a secure grip while uniquely allowing visibility of the internal SpeedSafe® mechanism.
• Inset Liner Lock: Features an inset strip of steel within the G-10 handle, providing the strength and security of a traditional liner lock in a slimmer profile, reducing bulk without compromising safety.
• Reversible Deep-Carry Pocketclip: Designed for discreet and versatile carry, the pocketclip can be reversed for preferred tip-up or tip-down orientation.
