Tradition meets modern design in the Esteem. This non-locking slip joint knife features a double detent system: two steel detent balls, one on each side of the blade. They hold the blade safely closed for carrying. Then, for controlled open and close, the Esteem also has a half-open position. The elegant handle features a polished G10 and steel combo material. Fine details, including bronze PVD coating on the hardware, elevate the Esteem even further. All of this creates a slip joint that users will cherish for a lifetime.
