A little light for its size...at least IMHO.
Feels a bit off on weight, but solidly made. Very sharp D2 is good asset.

The ABKT Catalyst Folding Knife is built for durability and performance, making it an essential tool for everyday carry. Designed with precision engineering, this knife features a 3.5-inch D2 tool steel coping blade with a black stonewash finish, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and resistance to wear. The blade’s coping shape is ideal for controlled cuts, making it a versatile option for a variety of tasks, from utility work to detailed slicing.
Equipped with a flipper mechanism, the Catalyst allows for quick and smooth deployment. The ball-bearing pivot enhances the knife’s responsiveness, delivering effortless one-handed operation. Ambidextrous thumb studs further improve accessibility, ensuring both left- and right-handed users can rely on its swift, reliable action. The secure liner lock mechanism keeps the blade firmly in place during use, providing confidence in its stability under pressure.
The handle is crafted from textured Coyote Tan G-10, offering a firm, slip-resistant grip that holds up in harsh conditions. Engineered for comfort and durability, the ergonomic handle design reduces hand fatigue during extended use. The liners are strategically hollowed out to reduce weight while maintaining the knife’s structural integrity, making it both lightweight and strong.
Designed with convenience in mind, the Catalyst includes a reversible black oxide stainless steel pocket clip for tip-up carry, allowing users to securely store the knife for quick access. With a closed length of 4.5 inches, it remains compact enough for pocket carry while providing a full-sized grip when deployed. The sleek yet rugged aesthetic, combined with its practical features, makes it an ideal choice for those who demand reliability in their everyday gear.
