The DPx Gear HEST 2.0 with OD Green handles is built as a hard-use folding knife that doesn’t flinch when the job gets serious. Designed with real-world performance in mind, this knife balances everyday carry practicality with the toughness expected from a tool meant to work, not just ride in a pocket. It’s compact enough for daily use, yet strong enough to be trusted when conditions turn demanding.
At the core is a 3.37 inch drop point blade crafted from D2 tool steel. Known for its excellent edge retention and solid wear resistance, D2 is a proven choice for users who want a blade that stays sharp through extended use. The black finish adds a low-profile, non-reflective look while helping protect the blade during hard use. The drop point profile offers strength at the tip and plenty of cutting edge, making it equally capable for slicing, piercing, and controlled utility work. Thumb stud opening allows fast, reliable one-handed deployment when timing matters.
The framelock construction provides dependable lockup, keeping the blade solidly in place during use. This design enhances overall strength while maintaining a slim, carry-friendly profile. The OD Green G-10 handle scales deliver a secure grip in a wide range of conditions. G-10 is lightweight, tough, and resistant to moisture and temperature changes, making it ideal for everyday carry and field use alike. The handle’s shape fills the hand comfortably without feeling bulky, offering control during precision cuts and confidence during heavier tasks. Glass Breaker.
