The Large Carbon Fiber Inkosi comes with a blade that is 3.6" long, the standard titanium edition Inkosi knife weighs 5.2 oz. but with the carbon fiber scale, the weight drops to 4.0 oz! That extra 1.2 ounces of weight reduction provides the user with an outstanding blade-to-weight ratio.
The carbon fiber is lightly blasted for texture, yet the weave pattern of the solid carbon fiber is clearly visible. The Large Inkosi has a frame lock mechanism that Chris Reeve pioneered in the knife industry. The lock construction puts a solid 6Al4V titanium frame behind the blade when opened. The frame lock construction along with the thumb lugs allow for easy one-handed opening and closing.
