C270 Nand
"From the mind of Paul Alexander, a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and lifelong knife enthusiast, the NAND is a unique new addition to our SLIPIT™ family of non-locking folding knives. In the closed position, the “tail” of its full-flatground blade extends from the pivot-pin end of the handle, allowing the knife to be opened one handed like a classic straight razor. Once open, twin ball bearing detents within the handle’s frame index the sides of the blade to hold it in place. Together, this Ball Joint Non-Locking Mechanism, hand pressure on the blade’s tail, and generous finger choils provide an extremely safe and secure grip. The NAND’s full-flat-ground blade is crafted from M398 stainless steel and also features a fully functional Trademark Round Hole™. Its handle scales are precision machined from solid titanium and are home to a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that completes the knife’s completely ambidextrous design by providing a choice of left or right-side, tip-up carry."[1]
