Built for those who demand premium materials, precision machining, and American-made quality, the Dead Reckon Integral Vertebrae Folding Knife delivers exceptional performance in a sleek, modern package. Designed, manufactured, and assembled entirely in Grove City, Ohio, this knife reflects Dead Reckon's commitment to innovation, durability, and craftsmanship.
At the heart of the Integral Vertebrae is a 3.42" CPM S45VN stainless steel reverse tanto blade with a rugged stonewash finish. This premium steel offers outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for everyday carry. The reverse tanto blade shape provides a reinforced tip for strength while maintaining excellent cutting performance across the edge. The stonewashed finish enhances the knife's rugged character and helps conceal scratches and wear from regular use.
The blade deploys quickly and smoothly with a flipper tab riding on sealed stainless steel roller ball bearings. The action is crisp, reliable, and remarkably smooth, delivering a premium feel every time the knife is opened. Once deployed, a sturdy button lock secures the blade firmly in place while allowing for easy one-handed operation.
The handle is machined from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum, creating an integral construction that offers impressive strength and rigidity without unnecessary weight. Finished in anodized green, the handle brings a bold, outdoors-inspired appearance to the knife. A vibrant orange anchor embellishment on the front side provides a striking contrast and distinctive visual signature. Completing the package are premium pocket clip and hardware components crafted from 17-4 PH and 416 stainless steel, all protected by a durable salt-bath nitride black coating for enhanced wear resistance and a clean, tactical look.
Measuring 4.83" closed and weighing just 3.8 ounces, the Integral Vertebrae is substantial enough for serious work while remaining comfortable for daily pocket carry. It's a knife built to perform and engineered to last.
