Description

The compact, ergonomic design of the Efficient™ centers around a full-flat-ground drop-point blade made from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. Its gently curved spine flows seamlessly into the handle, which is built with full, skeletonized stainless steel liners, peel-ply-textured G-10 scales, and a stainless steel back spacer. The handle’s liners form the foundation of its sturdy LinerLock mechanism and anchor a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that supports ambidextrous tip-up carry. This workhorse design is available in two different formats. One features a satin-finished blade and a PlainEdge™ cutting edge. The second showcases an all-black theme with a black oxide blade coating and black-coated liners, clip, and handle hardware. The all-black Efficient is available in both PlainEdge™ and partially serrated CombinationEdge™ formats.
