Chances are your father or grandfather carried a folding knife with a lockback design. This classic mechanism is known for being lightweight, reliable, strong, and durable. It’s also safe to use with a solid lockup that prevents accidental closures and unexpected openings while in your pocket. This updated design features a CRYO hardened 5Cr15MoV blade for repeat use while the glass reinforced nylon handle is textured for a secure grip while being lightweight and strong. The versatile pocket clip is reversible for left/right carry, while the back lock allows this to be a truly ambidextrous design. This model features a black PVD-coated blade with FDE flat dark earth handle scales. Whether you are hiking, camping, or hunting, you need a knife that can handle the unexpected.
