Combined with the solid construction, the crossbar lock reinforces the Cub’s reputation as a dependable everyday carry folding knife.

The handle is made from durable black G-10, a material prized for its strength, lightweight properties, and excellent grip. Even in wet or slippery conditions, the textured surface provides confident handling. The ergonomic shape fits comfortably in hand, giving you precise control whether you’re making delicate cuts or applying more pressure. A reversible tip-up pocket clip supports both left- and right-hand carry, ensuring versatility and convenience no matter your preference.
