BRK Designed by ESEE Zancudo Framelock Black D2 BRKR2B

Comes with a razor edge, retains the edge (D2 steel is good for that), opens quickly and with little effort, feature tight lock-up, and has considerable depth on the pocket clip. Add in the black stealth and you have a mean little folder (with flipper speed) that makes one of the best EDC knives on the planet. Additionally, it is not a large knife so its size and presence will not "freak" anyone out. FYI, I bought one of these for someone as a birthday present and liked it so much I bought two for me (in different colors).

This knife has an impressive opening action for being on phosphor bronze washers, likely due to its admittedly strong detent. It's D2 blade seems to have sufficient edge retention for my uses, and for the price of the knife. I would highly recommend this knife to anyone who can legally possess one where they reside and is seeking a quick opening action without a spring assist or the vulnerabilities to dirt that come with knives running on ball bearings, despite my deep appreciation for those knives.

Great knife
