Kihon DC 2.0

The American custom knifemaker Lucas Burnley, embodies the idea of Japanese Kihon with the design of the Boker Plus Kihon DC . The term originally encompasses the fundamentals and basic techniques of Japanese martial arts, which Burnley has implemented down-to-earth in a solid everyday knife. The features and straightforward design are evidence of its high practicality and give the knife with the decisive price-performance advantage an ideal basis for everyday cutting tasks. The satinised drop-point blade made of D2 opens smoothly thanks to the ball bearings over the removable thumb stud, while the crossbar lock guarantees intuitive, safe and practical unlocking of the knife. The 2.0 versions of the popular model are also suitable as a lightweight full-size EDC thanks to the 15% weight reduction. The non-slip handle with texturised squares is made of high-strength GFN and sits comfortably in the hand. Blue anodised rings around the blade pivot screw and the large handle screw give the Kihon a fine touch. Supplied with a lanyard hole and a convertible tip-up wire clip for flexible carrying options.

Warning and safety information:
Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.
Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.
Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.
Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.
Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
