BTKBG36C: BG36C Operator Flipper Knife
Bestech Knives
The Operator is a surprisingly hefty offering from the G10 line of Bestech flipper knives. The knife has a large Wharncliffe blade made from a 0.15" thick piece of D2 steel, a favorite for their G10 line of knives. D2 holds up well under heavy use and the thickness of the blade really allows you to put some power behind your cuts. It's a real chopper. The blade is deployed via a flipper tab or a finger hole milled from the blade profile and rockets open thanks to the ceramic bearing construction of the pivot. The beefy G10 handles are milled to accommodate the hand with a large finger groove and provide a non-slip grip thanks to the subtle texturing. The knife locks up with a sturdy liner mechanism and comes with a stainless steel pocket clip. This knife is a beast of a flipper that makes a great addition to Bestech's offerings.

What a deal
This folder is pretty big but handles well.Super sharp and pointy and super easy to sharpen.I imagine this would be ok for general use but I'd call this a defensive knife.It's super sharp and could easily cut thru several layers of closing. The point is super sharp and I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of that point. Blade is big enough to penetrate deep into whatever you's stick it into. Using the thumb hole the blade deploys as fast as any automatic.
