RCBRK1301: Avispa AUTO Slide Lock Folder - Black G10

ESEE Knives

Avispa is Spanish for Wasp and this slide lock/crossbar lock folding knife is an aptly named large brother to the awesome Zancudo folder. The Avispa AUTO was also designed by the survival experts over at ESEE Knives, Mike Perrin and Jeff Randall, and produced by Blue Ridge Knives. It features the same drop point blade shape but in a larger, more capable 3.5" size. With this larger blade, they needed a larger handle, and what better knife platform to go with than the awesome Ontario Rat 1. It's a very ergonomic handle that's great for tactical applications and comfortable during prolonged use. The only knock on the Ontario Rat 1 was that it was always a liner lock. Well, wait no longer - the Avispa AUTO is here! The absence of the extra handle scale has produced an extremely slim profile and easy-to-carry knife with the Avispa. The pocket clip is reversible to all four positions and the knife weighs in at 5.36 ounces. It's another folder we're very excited about here at the KnifeCenter because it gets almost everything right in a folding knife at a price point you're sure to be pleased with.

Nice Knife at a great price point
This has been a great knife so far, it is a bit on the bigger side, so I also bought the smaller model with the 3" blade which makes it a lot easier in my opinion for EDC.The action is very good, the spring appears strong.My only complaint is that on both of these models the cross bar lock/release needed a little lube. The way they came from the factory they tended to stick quite often, although a little dry Teflon lube applied and the problem seems to have went away.Overall I would recommended these knives.
