Inspired by the lines of aerospace design, the Norad has landed. The Norad opens with Kershaw's KVT ball-bearing system and a flipper. Kershaw reduced the size of the flipper when the knife is closed—and made it disappear altogether when the knife is open. Carbon fiber inserts in the steel handle and an oversized, polished pivot add a modern look, while a custom backspacer with raised jimping provides a secure grip. The big, beefy drop-point blade has a two-toned finish: a hollow in the blade features gray PVD coating and the rest of the blade is machine satin finished.
Features
Flipper - May be used on either manual or assisted opening knives. The “flipper” is a protrusion on the back of the blade that the user can pull back on, or flip, in order to move the blade easily out of the handle.
Frame Lock - A portion of the handle (the knife frame) moves behind the blade to lock it into position during use. This is a safety feature of the knife.
Reversible - Pre-drilled holes in the handle enable the user to change either the tip position or the side on which the knife carries.

D2 Tool Steel

Frame Lock
Developed by Chris Reeve, it functions like a liner lock but the lock is comprised of one of the handle scales. It's an extremely strong and easy to manipulate lock.

Kershaw 5510 Norad Flipper Knife 3.3" Two-Tone D2 Drop Point Blade, Stainless Steel Handles with Carbon Fiber Inserts
I don't hesitate to make knives more user friendly for myself. The 'carbon fiber' pieces got pulled out because they were slippery and the smooth metal underneath got roughed up for traction.Ground out the notch to have better access to the lock. The flipper tab is small but works well and is hidden when open. The blade can be opened by thumb. It's a yard work knife and gets rough use. No hot spots, good grip, solid construction, sharp blade and easy to touch up.Thin but has some heft which comes with the SS handles. Easy to clean out and a good clip.
