The HX Outdoors Rock Onyx ZD-104B-S is a compact everyday carry pocket knife that combines a 2.87" D2 tool-steel blade with a black G10 handle and a secure button lock. At 7.28" overall and 107 g, it stays easy to carry while offering the edge retention and blade security needed for daily cutting tasks, outdoor use, and general utility work.
D2 steel gives the Rock Onyx ZD-104B-S excellent edge retention and wear resistance, so it holds a working edge through repeated cutting jobs.
