Byrd Lightweight Hawkbill Knife - Black FRN Handle

The BY22 Byrd folder features a distinctive Hawkbill-shaped blade with a claw-like tip, designed to overwhelm material in its cutting path. This unique shape is rooted in the commercial fishing industry, making it ideal for downward, sweeping cutting performed at arm's length and away from the body. The full serrations across the blade's length significantly increase its cutting capacity for separating webbing, cardboard, and coarse or fibrous material. Additionally, the hollow-ground blade features jimping at both spine and choil for additional tactile dexterity and control.

The black fiberglass handle is Bi-Directionally Textured for slip-resistance in any hand position, and nested inside the handle are full-length skeletonized steel liners, increasing rigidity and strength without adding bulk or weight. The screw-together handle construction allows for adjustment, and a lanyard hole located at the handle's edge accommodates secondary retention through attachment of a lanyard or thong. The ambidextrous tip/up, tip/down steel pocket clip offers versatile carrying options.
