LMDFD35ASFC: Field Duty-3.5 - Crosscut Arctic Storm FatCarbon
Liong Mah Designs
The Field Duty-3.5 is a robust knife with just the right combination of size, strength, materials, and price that will keep you reaching for it as you go out the door day after day.
The first thing you'll notice about the Field Duty 3.5 is what its name would suggest; a fantastic tool with a 3.5" blade. In addition to its medium size, it has a pronounced finger choil and thumb ramp which promotes you to choke up on the blade during use. The Field Duty-3.5 is built with a Crosscut Arctic Storm FatCarbon construction and titanium bolsters, yielding enhanced strength and lightness. The drop point blade is CPM-S90V stainless steel for added piercing performance and edge retention. The Field Duty-3.5 is a mid-sized, high-performance take on the original formula and will be your go-to for everyday carry.

To hard to open
The fit and finish are beautiful I really like the knife but unfortunately the front flipper is impossible to use. I have opened it many times and lubrcated the detent but no luck. I reached out to the manufacturer and they admitted it is hard to use but mine is impossible. At this price point I expect it to work flawlessly ultimately I am going to return the knife.

Super Knife
I did not believe the bad press about this knife and I’m glad I didn’t. It has a great detent and slices through cardboard like a dream. It feels good in the hand and looks great. I could not resist the urge to pick it up and flick it out. Even now I pick it up just to touch the beautiful Fat Carbon Fiber. The action is smooth and responsive. I love the CPM S90V blade material that cuts so nicely. It’s just a great all around knife.

Great knife
Great knife, balanced well. Top of the line steel. Very pretty knife to have in your collection. I have a dozen knives I've purchased from the Knife Center. All of them are top guilty. Very happy with the product and service. This is a well made knife.
