Closed length measures 4.42 inches, allowing efficient pocket placement without excess bulk. A reversible tipup pocket clip supports both left and rightside carry preferences. The overall design prioritizes low weight, reliable lockup, and intuitive operation for routine utility tasks, making the Counterpart a practical everyday carry option focused on efficiency and control.
