A 109 g flipper with a 3.43 in 14C28N blade and a ceramic bearing pivot.
We recommend the Kubey Anteater for campers and everyday carriers who want a bigger, bolder folder with a fast flipper. A 3.43 inch beadblast and dark oxide 14C28N blade is 4.0 mm thick and heat treated to HRC 59 to 61, a caged ceramic ball bearing makes the flipper snap open, and a liner lock secures it. The black G10 handle is 4.6 inches long with cutouts that keep the weight at 109 g, and a deep-carry tip-up clip keeps it low in the pocket. A lifetime warranty backs it up. At $70 it is a strong, striking value for camp tasks and daily use.
