SHOP CASE KNIVESSleek, strong, and ready to work, the Kizer Drop Bear 2 Gray Aluminum is a compact powerhouse designed to meet the needs of everyday users who expect precision performance and a clean, modern aesthetic. Built with premium materials and thoughtful design, this manual folding knife blends functionality with visual appeal, making it a dependable choice for anyone looking to upgrade their everyday carry.
The Drop Bear 2 features a 2.84-inch drop point blade made from Nitro-V stainless steel—an excellent choice for daily use thanks to its high toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Whether you're opening packages, cutting rope, or handling small utility tasks, this blade stays sharp and reliable through it all. The drop point profile offers a balanced mix of slicing ability and tip strength, making it versatile enough for both detail work and heavier cutting. Finished in a stealthy black coating, the blade resists wear and adds a bold contrast to the smooth gray of the handle.
Opening the blade is quick and intuitive thanks to ambidextrous thumb studs that allow for easy, one-handed deployment. Once open, the blade locks in place using Kizer’s button lock system—a secure, easy-to-operate mechanism that adds an extra layer of safety and convenience. It gives you a satisfying click on deployment and smooth, controlled closure with the press of a button.
The gray aluminum handle is lightweight yet durable, offering a clean, minimalist appearance while providing solid, reliable grip. Its ergonomic shape fits naturally in the hand, while the slight contouring ensures comfort during extended use. Aluminum not only keeps the weight manageable at 3.18 ounces, but also adds durability without bulk, making this knife an excellent companion whether it’s clipped to your jeans or tossed in a pack.
Measuring 6.83 inches overall and 4 inches closed, the Drop Bear 2 is perfectly sized for pocket carry. The deep-carry pocket clip holds the knife discreetly and securely, while its reversible design makes it a great option for both right- and left-handed users. The clip’s tip-up orientation ensures that the knife is always ready when you reach for it. A lanyard hole at the rear of the handle gives you even more ways to customize your carry setup or attach additional accessories.
