The Iridium goes all black, complementing its sleek design and EDC-friendly profile. Activate with the thumb stud and experience buttery smooth deployment with KVT ball bearings. Ultra-secure DuraLock technology locks the blade in place. The D2 spear point blade is ideal for everyday cutting tasks, and its black-oxide finish is appropriately stealthy. When your work is done, safely close the folder by sliding the lock back and carry it with a reversible deep-carry pocket clip. The Iridium – Black not only boasts work-ready sharpness and comfort, but it also blends with the shadows for an elegant and classy carry.
