North Mountain Blade Kaiken-CarbonFiber – 3.5" SLD-Magic Tanto Folding Knife
The North Mountain Blade Kaiken-CarbonFiber brings classic Japanese Kaiken styling together with a lightweight, modern build. Its segmented Tanto blade is forged from custom three-layer SLD-Magic steel hardened up to 61HRC, hand-hot forged for genuine surface ripples—concave ground for clean slicing and flat ground at the tip for strong piercing. The 3K carbon fiber and black G10 handle keeps the knife light, grippy, and good-looking. Going Gear is an authorized North Mountain Blade dealer.
