Product Description
The Squid Compact is a small but mighty knife that is perfect for everyday carry. Designed by renowned knife designer Lucas Burnley, this "Extra Small" evolution of the iconic Squid is packed with advanced features, including assisted opening and IKBS™ bearings for a smooth opening and closing every time. It's small and unobtrusive, so you can slip it into your pocket or attach it to your keys without any hassle.
The Squid Compact features a 1.75" spear point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, finished in a rugged blackwash to hide wear and eliminate glare. Deployment is lightning-fast thanks to the Ken Onion Assisted Opening mechanism and the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system. The ergonomics are defined by a matching blackwashed stainless steel handle that provides incredible strength and a solid feel despite its diminutive size. Friction grooves on the blade spine ensure maximum control for precision tasks, making this the ultimate "pocket-disappearing" utility tool.
