Description
The North Mountain Blade CHOP 2 2406-BKSK takes the company’s best-selling folding knife design and elevates it with bold styling and major mechanical upgrades. Featuring a 3.5-inch SLD-MAGIC blade, a new .45-style thumb disc, and two-tone G10 handles with a striking snake skin pattern, this knife is built for both high performance and standout looks.
Modern Upgrades on a Proven Platform
The CHOP2 series has been a favorite since its original release, known for its ergonomic design, smooth flipping action, and premium steel. The new 2406 generation refines this proven platform with:
-
Custom .45-Style Thumb Disc — CNC-machined to resemble a .45 ACP casing, slightly smaller than a live round and non-functional, but tactically striking. Allows smooth one-handed opening and is fully left-hand friendly.
-
Reinforced Button Lock Frame — Features a brass inlay around the button to increase wear resistance and strengthen the lock interface, whether you choose G10 or carbon fiber scales.
-
Effortless Deployment — A flipper tab, button lock, and ceramic bearings in a brass cage deliver ultra-smooth, fluid opening every time.
Since 2018, North Mountain Blade has perfected its exclusive SLD-MAGIC surface treatment, combining cutting-edge durability with refined aesthetics. The 2406-BKSK brings that same steel performance to a modernized, tactically inspired design.
