Chris Reeve Large Inkosi Black Micarta Inlay Folding Knife

The Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay Folding Knife follows the Chris Reeve Knives tradition of producing the highest quality knives with only the best materials. Inkosi is the Zulu word for "the Chief," and the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay is truly the Chief among other folding pocket knives.

The 3.6-inch Crucible S35VN stainless steel blade of the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay is heat-treated to provide a Rockwell Hardness Scale rating of 59-60. The blade will sharpen to a razor-sharp edge and offer exceptional edge retention. The wide hollow grind of the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay's blade combines the best of both hollow and flat grinds, enhancing the sharpness and edge retention of the blade without sacrificing any strength. The tumbled finish blade features a sleek drop point shape that allows for excellent blade control and strength, perfect for general everyday cutting and slicing needs. The Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay has a rounded top blade spine and jimping on the blade thumb rest, providing both a sleek appearance and exceptional cutting experience and capabilities. With double thumb lugs crafted in the Reeve signature anodized blue titanium, the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay is easily opened in either the left or right hand. Chris Reeve's Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay, crafted in Boise, Idaho, boasts the fine craftsmanship that is expected of American-made products.

Tucked into the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay's 6Al4V sand-blasted titanium handle is Chris Reeve's Integral Lock system, combined with a 97 RC ceramic ball end lock create a knife that provides a lifetime of consistent, sturdy locking. Twin Phosphor-bronze washers, an over-built pivot and stop pin all create a more torque resistant, solid opening feel and provide the blade with increased stability. The Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay will not open or close accidentally, and a ceramic lock bar insert prevents wear on the 6Al4V titanium bar. The handle measures 4.8 inches, and the black Micarta inlays on the front and back of the knife's handle and an added finger groove on the bottom of the handle provide exceptional grip and control, even when wet from rain or sweat. 303 stainless steel hardware and silver titanium accents offer extra stability and durability to the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay, making an aesthetically beautiful knife built to last a lifetime. The mounted pocket clip rests on the back face to eliminate any possibility of pressure on the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay's lockbar, providing both an ergonomic grip and a sleek, stylish carry method. A lanyard hole in the handle provides extended options for carrying the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay. Weighing in at just 4.96 ounces, the Large Inkosi Micarta Inlay provides the weight needed for general cutting duties but is light enough to allow for exceptionally comfortable everyday carry.
