THE TREK LOCK
The Trek Lock (patent pending) is an innovation that perfectly combines multi-deployment options (i.e. thumb-hole, thumb-stud, front flipper, normal flipper) with a reliable & intuitive locking mechanism. No more thumb in the closing path, always more ways to play with.
The mechanism can reduce unintended unlock accidents.
Knife is more than a cutting tool. You will enjoy using this intuitive, pleasant, ambidextrous innovation.
THE BLADE
CPM S35VN ensures an excellent balance of performance, toughness, and edge retention.
Traditional Tantō has superior piercing performance, and the tip is further reinforced by a harpoon structure.
Shallow compound hollow grind for slicing performance and edge stability.
Straight fuller offers a sleek yet sophisticated appearance.
THE HANDLE
Laminate GT-Mascus (Topo G10 ) offers unique, lightweight, strong, and durable experiences.
All the edges and corners on the handle are well chamfered and polished for excellent ergonomics and comfortableness.
THE DETAILS
Skeletonized and nested liner. It strikes an optimal balance of strength and weight.
Dedicated brass/copper backspacer is for attaching lanyard and extra structural stability.
Purposefully placed jimping can gives you confident and secured control in adversary weather conditions or work environments.
This well-tuned deep-carry clip can be positioned for left or right-sided carry.
