Porcupine- Top Liner Lock (2.99" 14C28N Blade & G10 Handle) - A2628

The Porcupine is a compact folding knife built around a 2.99-inch drop-point blade in 14C28N steel. The blade shape balances a pronounced belly for slicing with a sharp tip for precision work—opening packages, cutting cordage, prepping food, or handling detail tasks all fall within its range. The steel holds an edge well, resists corrosion, and sharpens without fuss.

A thumb stud on the blade spine allows one-handed opening, even with gloves on. The top liner lock sits inside the handle, secured by a stainless steel plate and backed by a steel spacer for rigidity. The lock keeps your fingers clear of the blade path during use and releases cleanly when you're done.

The handle measures 1.22 inches wide and suits medium to large hands. G10 scales provide texture and durability without adding weight. A forward choil on the blade lets you choke up for finer control, while a choil on the handle prevents your hand from sliding forward during harder cuts. Jimping at key contact points—thumb rest, choil, and spine—adds grip where you need it.

Internal milling removes material from the liners to keep weight down without sacrificing structure. A barrel lanyard tube runs through the handle for attaching cord or a fob. All fasteners are titanium-coated T8 screws, so a single driver handles any adjustment or disassembly. The pocket clip is reversible and recessed to reduce snags.

The blade's wide belly and forward-weighted balance make it efficient for slicing motions. The tip is fine enough for piercing or scoring without being fragile. The lock engages with a solid click and shows no play when seated. The knife rides in a pocket with minimal bulk and deploys quickly when you need it.
