Small but mighty!
The Gnat-S XL is a typical Justin Koch design. Simply different!
The compact handle of the Gnat-S XL offers you space for two to three fingers (depending on the size of your hand). Embedded in the handle scales (choice of Micarta, orange G10 or Purple Aluminum) are two liners that press down on the blade root with two locking springs and snap tightly into place when closed or open. This creates enough retention force for the blade to be held but not locked, so the knife is 42a compliant.
The star of the show is clearly the hollow ground blade made of M390 steel: the thin tapered edge provides a lot of cutting pleasure. When closed, you will find a small hook under the lever at the root of the blade: so the Gnat-S XL can also be used as a cap lifter for an after-work beer.
