The Klaken Drift has a 3.38-inch satin D2 tool steel tanto blade, a black G10 handle, an extended tang, a thumb pull, a lanyard hole and a pocket clip, closing to 4.5 inches, with a nylon storage pouch.
Two openers is the useful detail here. Either the extended tang or the thumb pull will start the blade, so the knife works the same whichever hand reaches for it. D2 is a semi-stainless tool steel that holds a working edge far longer than the budget stainless usual at this price, though it needs to be dried after it gets wet.
The tanto puts a reinforced corner where a curved belly would run, concentrating force at the front for piercing at the cost of a sweeping slice. A satin finish leaves fine directional lines that hide handling marks better than a polish would. Explore more Modern EDC Linerlocks.
