What do you get when you cross a knife enthusiast with someone who has earned a PhD in Mechanical Engineering? You get designer Paul Alexander and the new Ikuchi. Pronounced ee-koo-chee, this knife was named after a mythical Japanese sea monster and boasts an elegant profile packed full of new features. There is a small textures section of the tang that serves as the flipper opener while sporting a stainless steel blade that is supported by Spyderco's patented Compression Lock™ mechanism--allowing users to safely close the blade with one hand without ever having the operating hand come near the cutting edge. This model features carbon fiber and G-10 laminate handle scales, skeletonized stainless steel liners, a trailing point style blade in a satin finish and the reversible pocket clip is designed for tip up carry only but is eligible for a left or right hand carry option.
