🔍 Detailed Overview
Blade Material: D2 Tool Steel
The OWL’s blade is forged from high-performance D2 steel, known for its excellent edge retention and hardness. This semi-stainless tool steel is a favorite among knife users who demand durability and long-term sharpness. Whether you're slicing rope, opening packages, or tackling wood shavings, this blade won't back down.
Blade Shape: Drop Point with a Subtle Swedge
The drop point design offers versatility for both piercing and slicing tasks. A subtle top swedge gives the blade an aggressive profile, while improving penetration and reducing weight.
Blade Length: 3.54 inches (90mm)
Perfectly balanced between compact and capable, making it legal to carry in most jurisdictions (always check local laws).
Opening Mechanism: Ball Bearing Pivot + Flipper Tab

Discreet and convenient. The OWL disappears into your pocket when you don’t need it—and is instantly ready when you do.
