NMB2532BKOR: Chop Crossbar Lock Folding Knife - Black/Orange G10

North Mountain Blade

The North Mountain Blade Chop crossbar lock folding knife is a rugged, eye-catching folder that brings serious build quality and a distinctive locking mechanism to the table. Its 3.75" Japanese SLD semi-stainless steel tanto blade features a hollow grind and a dramatic Hamon finish that gives the knife both functional sharpness and a refined, traditional look. The blade’s 0.130" thickness provides solid strength and confidence for hard use.

In hand, the 8.50" overall length and 4.75" closed size feel balanced yet substantial. The black and orange G10 handle delivers durability with visual texture, while the crossbar lock brings dependable security under load. A titanium pocket clip lets you carry tip-up on either side, and at 5.4 ounces, the knife has a light weight that matches its performance-ready design. Whether you’re using it in the field or just appreciate a folder with bold presence and strong build quality, this Chop model stands out as both a practical tool and a statement piece.

Nice addition to my EDC collection
My first purchase of a North Mountain Blade knife, this KC exclusive is quite nice. I was a bit worried about the orange color, but seeing it firsthand, it really works. The fit and finish are excellent and the overall construction looks very professionally done.The action was super smooth out of the box (oh yeah, it comes in a custom plastic box, similar to a little Pelican case, pretty cool) and I personally like beefy, hand-filling knives. This one fills my XL hands! The Hamon blade finish is quite handsome, but I have no real opinion about the steel and I don't particularly care as I have no intentions for any real practical use. It did take a light stropping fairly well as it was slightly sharpish out of the box.I don't see actually carrying it, it's just a collection addition for me. I like it enough that I will probably get the button/liner-lock version as well.

Good heavy use folding knife
Love the blade shape and look. Like a daily carry katana! I like the steel. Takes a good edge and the "hamon" is pretty cool. Though it gets pretty close to the edge at the tip portion. The handle shape is comfy and grippy. More than enough room for large hands. It's pretty heavy at 5.5oz. Not a knife for gym shorts.Build quality feels excellent and would make a good work knife.
