Designed by Jared Van Otterloo and brought to prominence by the handmade customs of Rod Olson, the Microburst button lock flipper is an ultra-compact pocket knife with a distinct utility style. It offers remarkable comfort, featuring an index finger choil for a secure four-finger grip, allowing for precise control and forceful cutting without creating hot spots. The 2.25" Wharncliffe blade, crafted from VG-10 stainless steel, ensures a razor-sharp edge with excellent corrosion resistance. Its machined aluminum handle faithfully captures the stylish aesthetic envisioned by Jared and Rod. The flipping action is smooth and snappy, complemented by a button lock that allows the blade to close effortlessly in one motion, reminiscent of Brian Tighe's designs. With its precision, appeal, and functionality, the Microburst is an exceptional everyday carry knife, offered at an excellent price by Begg Knives.
