North Mountain Blade Kick Stop Chop Linerlock Folding Knife SLD-Magic/Jade G-10 NMB2411JD

The North Mountain Blade Kick Stop Chop Plus with jade G-10 handles blends bold tactical styling with clever mechanical design, creating a folder that’s as satisfying to use as it is capable. Built with a commanding presence and a distinctive profile, this knife delivers serious cutting power while maintaining the clean, modern lines that have made the Chop series stand out among enthusiasts.

At the center of the build is a Japanese-style tactical tanto blade crafted from SLD-Magic steel. This high-performance tool steel is known for impressive edge retention, strength, and long-term durability. The tanto profile reinforces the tip for piercing strength while maintaining a long primary edge that handles slicing tasks with confidence. The blade’s geometry and grind make it well suited for everyday cutting duties while still offering the toughness needed for more demanding work.

One of the defining features of the Chop Plus is the Lee Williams Kickstop mechanism. This innovative flipper system deploys the blade quickly and smoothly, then allows the flipper tab to disappear once the blade is fully open. The result is a streamlined handle profile that feels natural in hand without the usual flipper tab protruding during use. The action is crisp, mechanical, and satisfying, giving the knife a distinctive personality every time it’s opened.

The jade G-10 handles bring a unique visual character to the knife. Their translucent green tone reveals subtle internal layering, giving the scales a modern, almost glowing appearance while retaining the durability and grip G-10 is known for. The material is lightweight yet tough, providing excellent traction and control during extended cutting sessions.

A solid frame lock secures the blade once deployed, delivering dependable lockup for serious work. The knife also features a stainless steel pocket clip that keeps it secure and accessible for everyday carry.
