Blade Show West Pick-Up - Three Rivers Manufacturing Neutron 2, Mike Irie Compound Grind, Mirror finish
The Neutron 2 from Three Rivers Manufacturing evolves the original Neutron platform—built for everyday carry enthusiasts, minimalists, and collectors who appreciate ultralight construction paired with meticulous finishing. This American-made folder features a 3-inch 154CM blade with a compound grind and mirror polish, hand-ground and finished by Mike Irie. At 2.5 ounces, the Neutron 2 disappears during carry while delivering serious cutting power from its thin blade stock.
The contoured bronze anodized pinstripe milled titanium scales provide a secure grip with ergonomic shaping that fills the hand naturally. Pocketed liners enable a wide range of scale options for future customization, and custom titanium hardware adds durability and refined aesthetics throughout. The famous Mike Irie hand grind and mirror polish give the blade a distinctive, refined finish that reflects the care put into every detail. 154CM steel offers reliable edge retention and corrosion resistance for daily use. This is ultralight craftsmanship made in the USA, with attention to every detail from blade grind to hardware selection. Check out the last 2 pictures to get a close-up of the polish and grind.
