[Kizer] Drop Bear Azo Beach Snowflake Crystal Fade, Ti, LC200N

You open the Drop Bear with the thumb studs. It opens easily and when opened the blade is kept in place by a clutch lock. The steel liners between the titanium handles add solidity to the frame. Which means you can always rely on your knife, even for the more demanding tasks.

This Drop Bear features a blade made of LC200N steel. This is a remarkable type of stainless steel. Incredibly practical if you often use the knife around water. LC200N-steel is also easy to sharpen.

But the real kicker here is the extra stuff designer Azo Mai added around that familiar core. First of all, the Drop Bear’s scales are designed to be easily removed, separate from the liners housing the lock; this allows for much easier maintenance and adjustment – the latter being another point of focus with the Drop Bear. The Gemini Spring System, as Kizer calls it, is a series of anchor points, five on each liner, for their respective spring. Once the scales are off, users can tweak the tension of the springs independently to suit their tastes.
