Built with uncompromising attention to detail and proudly made in the USA, the Dead Reckon Integral Vertebrae Folding Knife combines premium materials, innovative engineering, and everyday functionality into a standout carry. Designed, manufactured, and assembled entirely in Grove City, Ohio, this knife showcases the precision craftsmanship and rugged reliability that have become hallmarks of the Dead Reckon name.
The Integral Vertebrae is equipped with a 3.42" CPM S45VN stainless steel reverse tanto blade finished in a rugged stonewash. Renowned for its excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, CPM S45VN is a premium blade steel built for serious use. The reverse tanto profile provides exceptional tip strength while maintaining excellent slicing performance, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of everyday cutting tasks. The stonewashed finish adds a hardworking appearance and helps disguise wear from daily carry.
Deployment is fast, smooth, and consistent thanks to the blade flipper and sealed stainless steel roller ball bearing system. The action feels refined and dependable with every opening. Once the blade is deployed, a sturdy button lock delivers secure lockup and convenient one-handed operation.
The handle is machined from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum, creating an integral construction that offers remarkable strength and rigidity while maintaining a lightweight feel. Finished in anodized Navy Blue, the handle provides a bold and refined appearance. A bright orange anchor embellishment on the front side creates an eye-catching contrast and adds a distinctive touch to the overall design. Premium hardware, including the pocket clip and screws, is crafted from 17-4 PH and 416 stainless steel and protected by a durable salt-bath nitride black coating for enhanced wear resistance and corrosion protection.
At 4.83" closed and weighing just 3.8 ounces, the Integral Vertebrae carries comfortably while delivering premium cutting performance and exceptional build quality. It's a knife designed to excel in daily use while standing out in any collection.
