Speed matters when you need your knife fast. The assisted opening mechanism and flipper deployment get the blade into action quickly, making this folder ready when you are.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Raygun a good everyday carry knife?
Yes. The Raygun is designed as an EDC folder with a compact blade, assisted opening for quick access, and a durable glass-filled nylon handle that resists wear. Its practical size and reverse tanto geometry make it well-suited for daily cutting tasks in the field, shop, or around camp.
What does the reverse tanto blade do better?
The reverse tanto design provides a strong, reinforced tip that excels at piercing and detail work while still offering the versatility of a general-purpose cutting edge. This blade shape is popular with users who need both precision and strength.
How does assisted opening work on this knife?
The assisted opening mechanism uses stored energy to accelerate the blade once you've begun deploying it with the flipper. This gives you rapid, one-handed access to the blade, making the knife faster to draw than a manual folder.
Will the stonewash finish wear off?
No. The stonewash is a surface finish applied to the blade steel itself, not a coating. It's durable and will continue to develop character and patina with use, while effectively concealing scratches and marks from regular work.
