When he's not creating, Designer Eric Ochs likes to take in the views of his Oregon backyard from over 8,000'. He's climbed a handful of PNW volcanic peaks and channeled the power of perseverance from these missions into his hardworking designs. The proof is in the flipper opening and the fast, smooth IKBS™ that uses lubed ball bearings in the pivot to deploy the blade at lightning speed. It's also built with a thumb disk for a more deliberate, manual open. Once it's deployed, the locking liner adds a solid layer of safety without compromising on ease of one-handed closing capability. The woven carbon fiber handles are compact and solid in the hand and the practical satin-finished spear point blade thrives from the front country to the back. To polish the look, Ochs gave it a bronze pocket clip and pivot detail, earning it serious style points. Backcountry utility and frontcountry style converge to create the Avant™.
