The AUS-8 tanto blade has a keen edge and is perfect for piercing and slicing tasks like paper and cardboard require. The handle scales are an artistic combination of polished titanium and textured black G-10 for improved grip and control. Ambidextrous thumb studs make opening the knife smooth and fast, and the liner lock makes for a secure lock-up. There is also a tip-down carry pocket-clip for easy and convenient access. All the right angles, this Kizer tanto blade has the detail you want.
