Drop-Point Pocket Knives

The Harrier Knife from Real Steel Has a Unique and Sturdy Design

— June 20, 2018 — Art & Design
Known for creating high-end and useful outdoor and homeware products, Real Steel released the new Harrier Knife as a part of a new avian-named pocket knife collection.

The latest model has a 3.54-inch drop-point blade and a flipped tab for fast and safe opening. The lock handle is adorned with a high-end carbon fibre inlay that comes out of the titanium handle to provide extra grip. To minimize friction, the brand added an extra ball into the center to make opening and closing as smooth as possible. All of the materials come together to provide a knife that is rough, hard and offers immaculate edge retention and resistance to corrosion and wear.

The Harrier Knife from Real Steel maximizes utility for each user -- available online now for $345.
