SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Bear & Son Bear OPS Teeth Nekamas Red & Blue is a folding knife that blends eye-catching style with dependable performance, giving you a tool you’ll be proud to carry and quick to trust when it’s time to cut. Its bold red aluminum handle with blue accents delivers a modern look that stands out, while the clean lines and thoughtful design keep things professional and practical for everyday use.
At the center of this knife is a 3.25-inch modified tanto blade crafted from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel. This well-regarded steel is known for taking a sharp edge, holding it through repeated use, and resisting corrosion when exposed to the elements. The satin finish adds a refined touch and helps the blade glide smoothly through cardboard, rope, plastic, and more. The modified tanto profile brings extra strength at the tip for detailed work and piercing tasks, paired with a straight cutting edge that’s efficient and easy to control.
Quick, smooth deployment comes from ambidextrous thumb studs, making the Nekamas friendly for both right- and left-handed users. Once open, the slide lock engages solidly to keep the blade secure while you work. It’s a simple, reliable locking system that inspires confidence and is easy to operate when you need to close the knife one-handed.
The aluminum handle keeps weight to a minimum without sacrificing durability. Weighing just 3.1 ounces, this knife disappears in your pocket but feels solid and balanced when it’s in your hand. The ergonomic shaping offers a comfortable grip, giving you good control whether you’re making quick cuts or spending more time on a task. The red finish paired with blue accents gives it a dynamic look that sets it apart from ordinary folders.
With an overall length of 7.87 inches when open, the Nekamas provides plenty of cutting reach while remaining compact enough for comfortable daily carry. The tip-up pocket clip keeps it positioned for fast access and secure retention in your pocket, so it’s always ready when you need it. A built-in lanyard hole adds another layer of versatility, letting you attach a lanyard for easier retrieval or added security.
Bear & Son has earned a strong reputation for building knives that balance quality materials, smart design, and real-world value, and the Bear OPS Teeth Nekamas lives up to that tradition. Every detail is designed with everyday reliability in mind, from the tough blade steel and sturdy lock to the lightweight handle that makes all-day carry a breeze.
This knife is made for those who want a dependable cutting tool without giving up style. It’s equally at home handling daily chores, tackling light work projects, or simply being there when you need a sharp edge at a moment’s notice. The Nekamas Red & Blue offers a combination of performance, comfort, and standout looks that’s hard to beat.
