The Dimitry Osarenko-designed Kizer October folding knife features a titanium handle that is curved to fit the hand and a finger choil to grip and go. The options to open this blade are with either the flipper tab or the cut out, thumb hole on the blade. Defined jimping on the blade's spine also is reliable to keep your fingers and hands steady when using. The cleaver shaped CPM-S35VN steel blade is strong and holds an edge well enough to make continuous cuts and slices.
