Dead Reckon Knives Ridgeback
The Ridgeback offers multiple grip holds for different use applications. The enlarged choil allows the user to hold the knife by placing the flipper tab between the index and middle finger, leaving a recessed area along the spine of the blade to place the thumb for more precise cutting. The proprietary locking mechanism developed in house relies on an incredibly precise relationship between the dual sealed precision bearings and the locking pin. This mechanism offers multiple ways to deploy the blade that results in a highly distinguishable “click” and a rock-solid open position that is indiscernible from a fixed blade. When the job has been completed and its time to send the blade home, the button lock allows the user to quickly and effortlessly close the blade with one hand while keeping the thumb out of the path of the cutting edge. DRK's reversible pocket clip proudly displays their logo into a functional aspect of the handle, allowing the knife to be placed on either side of the body.
About Dead Reckon Knives
