The MARK 25 features a 3.75-inch drop point blade made from D2 tool steel. Known for its impressive hardness and edge retention, D2 delivers long-lasting sharpness that stands up to repeated use. It resists wear while offering the strength you need for heavier cutting jobs. The black finish adds a tactical edge to the look while helping reduce glare and providing extra resistance against the elements. With a sturdy .15-inch blade thickness, the MARK 25 has the durability for tough work yet maintains the precision you want in a high-quality cutting tool.
Opening the knife is fast and intuitive thanks to the blade flipper. This design ensures smooth, reliable deployment with just a simple push of your finger. Once open, the linerlock mechanism engages securely, holding the blade firmly in place so you can cut with confidence. The straightforward operation and solid lockup make this folder dependable in a wide variety of situations.
The handle of the MARK 25 is built with black GRN, or glass-reinforced nylon, which combines light weight with impressive strength. Its textured surface provides a reliable grip even in challenging conditions, making the knife as easy to control in the rain as it is on a sunny day. Measuring 5 inches closed and 8.75 inches overall, it offers a comfortable in-hand feel without being overly large or heavy. At just 4 ounces, it’s light enough for daily pocket carry while still substantial enough to inspire confidence.
Carrying options are flexible to suit your preference. The reversible tip-up pocket clip makes it easy to adjust for right- or left-handed carry, and the built-in lanyard slot adds another level of convenience for quick access. Whether clipped to your pocket or attached to a lanyard, the MARK 25 is always within easy reach.
