The BlackWash finish gives it a rough-and-tumble look, yet the finish isn’t just for looks. The coating provides an extra measure of protection for the metal, and the BlackWash helps hide any additional scratches you put on the knife during normal use. It opens neatly with the built-in flipper or thumbstud. A sturdy frame lock safely secures the blade open during use, and then closes easily for storage or carry. Blade length is 3.4 in, weight 6.3 oz and deep pocket clip. The handle is stainless steel with black-oxide BlackWash? finish just like the blade.
