Designed by Matthew Lerch of Sussex, Wisconsin, the LCK + Tanto is designed with Matthew’s signature style: functional art. With a sleek, linear design, the formidable jet black Tanto blade meets the glass-reinforced nylon handle in what looks like a nearly seamless transition. The grooves on the handle elevate the grip in rain, mud, and grease. Built with Assisted Opening, simply nudge the blade open part way and the innovation activates, snapping it open at super high speed. The IKBS ball bearing pivot system makes for a smooth rotation and a liner lock keeps it solidly in place.
Ready, aim, LCK + Tanto.
How Assisted Opening Works
It's held securely closed in your pocket, but initiate the deployment, and part way through the rotation the blade swings open at impressive speed for simple, powerful, one-handed opening.
