You will be amazed at the solid feel, fast opening action, and generally awesome utility of this sweet blade. The Clash&';s 3-inch blade is just right for most tasks. It&';ll take on boxes, heavy plastic, rope, or whatever you need, without complaint. The blade has plenty of belly and just the slightest hint of a recurve, to improve slicing without being hard to sharpen. The Clash&';s steel blade offers stain and wear resistance, as well as good strength. The Clash opens with SpeedSafe assisted opening for a satisfying " thwack" as it locks into place ready for use. Both left and right-handed users can open the Clash one-handed thanks to the ambidextrous flipper. The Clash&';s handle is somewhat wider and thicker, and has a deep index-finger indentation. The combination makes for a knife that provides an extremely secure grip. The glass-filled nylon scales are textured to enhance grip even more, so you can carry this in all weathers without a slip of the hand. You must be at least 18 years of age to buy a knife or multi-purpose tool with knife blade.
