"Dependability shouldn't depend on your budget."
RAVEN
The Raven's aluminum handle is featherweight and feather-textured for light-in-the-hand, slip free cutting. The feathery markings are corrugated in the aluminum, generating tactile resistance when cutting in a forward or backward motion.
The 3.5 inch hollow-ground, non-reflective blade on the RAVEN is covered with a black Titanium Carbonitride coating and has a full swedge grind with a trademarked comet shaped hole for easy one-handed opening. Jimping where handle and blade connect increase cutting manageability.
The Raven's handle houses internal full-length steel liners and a Michael Walker style LinerLock for secure, confident cutting.
The Raven also includes a right-hand, tip-up / tip-down black steel clip for secure, comfortable carry.
