Key benefits

  • Combination edge – effective for cutting a variety of materials such as rope, cardboard, and textiles.
  • Lightweight construction – low weight and slim profile ideal for EDC.
  • Secure grip – textured FRN with an ergonomic shape fits well in the hand.
  • Easy to carry – the four-position pocket clip allows individual customization.
  • Compact size – suitable even where a discreet yet functional knife is needed.
  • 🔴 Possible drawbacks:
  • Shorter blade – may be less suitable for more demanding cutting tasks than larger models.
  • More demanding maintenance of the serrated section – requires a special sharpener or experience.

Maintenance and care

Cleaning: After use, rinse or wipe clean and dry thoroughly. FRN does not absorb moisture, and the stainless blade is resistant.

Lubrication: Occasional maintenance of the pivot and lockback mechanism with oil is recommended.

Sharpening: The plain section can be sharpened normally, while the serrated section should be sharpened using special sharpeners (e.g. a ceramic cone or Sharpmaker).
