IKUCHI™

Designed by Paul Alexander, a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and a lifelong knife enthusiast, the Ikuchi (pronounced ee-koochee; a mythical Japanese sea monster) is a uniquely different pocketknife. Its elegantly curved handle features full, skeletonized stainless steel liners and carbon fiber/G-10 laminate scales. When closed, the handle’s slim profile completely contains the knife’s blade—except for a small textured section of the tang that serves as a flipper opener. With a stroke of an index finger or thumb, the full-flat-ground CPM® S30V® stainless steel blade opens and locks securely via a Compression Lock® mechanism. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip completes the package, providing discreet, left or right-side tip-up carry.
