Product DescriptionThe Kizer Masu V3697A1 is a full-size, lightweight EDC folder designed by Caleb Waldman, pairing a 3.42" Sandvik 14C28N drop point blade with a Blue Canyon Richlite handle and a glow-in-the-dark green G10 backspacer.14C28N is a Swedish stainless steel that takes a very keen edge, resists rust well and is easy to touch up at home. Kizer hardens it to 59 HRC (plus or minus 1), flat grinds it for clean slicing, and finishes it in a clean satin finish. The broad drop point profile handles boxes, camp chores and fishing bait with equal ease, and a large thumb hole doubles as a design signature.Named for the masu salmon, the handle flows in smooth, fish-like curves that fill a four-finger grip. Richlite is a dense paper-and-resin composite that stays grippy wet or dry and wears in with a warm, organic feel; this Blue Canyon version brings a deep ocean-toned look. Diagonal texturing along the finger groove and jimping on the spine add control, while the GID backspacer charges in daylight and glows green after dark, so the knife is easy to find in a tent or a dark bag.Deployment is by thumb hole, and the Kizer Button Liner Lock gives a solid lockup plus smooth, controlled one-handed closing at the press of a button. A deep carry reversible pocket clip and a weight of about 3.1 oz make the Masu an easy everyday companion.Shop all Kizer knives here.Specifications Model: Masu Model Number: V3697A1 Manufacturer: Kizer Designer: Caleb Waldman Knife Type: Manual Folding Pocket Knife Blade Material: Sandvik 14C28N Blade Hardness: 59 1 HRC Blade Finish: Satin Blade Style: Drop Point Blade Grind: Flat Grind Handle Material: Blue Canyon Richlite Accents: Glow-in-the-dark green G10 backspacer Lock Type: Kizer Button Liner Lock(TM) Opener: Thumb Hole Pocket Clip: Deep Carry Reversible Overall Length: 8.01" / 203.56 mm Handle Length: 4.59" / 116.68 mm Blade Length: 3.42" / 86.87 mm Blade Thickness: 0.110" / 2.8 mm Weight: 3.09 oz / 87.6 g Country of Origin: China
