First Tactical now offers a sleek-looking tactical folder with a D2 steel blade it calls the Krait Knife Spear.
The Krait Knife Spear is a co-op between First Tactical and noted knife designer Mike Vellekamp to create the perfect advanced utility knife, according to First Tactical.
The Krait is built with a thinner frame and blade for a better fit in the pocket and a quick deploy. Liner Lock, our innovative Thumb Bridge Technology, and complex, concave blade recurve come together to create the ideal folder, First Tactical maintains.
It features a 3.51 inch D2 blade with modified spear point. The high carbon, high chromium D2 steel is the strongest steel of any First Tactical knives.
The Krait Knife Spear G-10 handle comes in three colors: black, coyote and olive drab. It retails for $60.
