Product Overview
A folding knife can offer more than one kind of cutting edge without taking up the space of a fixed-blade tool. The Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops Liner Lock Folding Knife pairs a partially serrated clip point blade with a black aluminum handle, giving you a compact cutting tool for everyday utility tasks and outdoor kit organization.
The blade combines plain and serrated sections, so you can choose the part of the edge that suits the job. The plain section is useful for controlled slicing, while the serrations provide an option for working through fibrous materials such as cordage. Its clip point profile brings the blade to a defined tip for more precise cutting tasks. Made from high carbon stainless steel, the blade has a black finish that matches the handle.
Opening Controls and Grip Details
An index flipper and thumb knobs give you two ways to open the blade. The thumb knobs are accessible from either side, accommodating left- or right-handed operation. Once open, the liner lock holds the blade in its working position; releasing the lock allows the blade to fold back into the handle.
Jimping along the back of the blade and on the handle provides textured contact points for your grip. These small ridges are useful where your fingers or thumb rest while controlling the knife. The aluminum handle also includes a pocket clip, letting you keep the knife clipped in place rather than loose at the bottom of a pocket.
