Columbia River Drop Point Elishewitz Pocket Knife
The blade shape is uniquely Allen’s, with a pronounced drop point, long spine
and a high hollow grind, resulting in strength and cutting power. For superior
edge retention, they use AUS 8 stainless steel in a non-reflective bead-blast finish. A gold-plated Elishewitz logo is inset into the stainless steel blade in the manner of custom knives. Teflon and brass bearings at the blade pivot assure fast either-hand opening, using dual checkered thumb studs which also act as blade stops. The button lock gives absolute steel-on-steel lockup, resulting in the strongest lock possible. They have added a version of their patented AutoLAWKS automatic safety, giving maximum security against accidental closing. To fold the knife, you must pull back the safety lever and press the button at the same time, making accidental release during vigorous use just about impossible. Allen’s design also features an unusual open build with a Zytel spine back spacer that allows easy cleaning of the blade groove. Construction is stainless steel for the frame with injection-molded Zytel scales and an inset brushed stainless steel bolster at the butt. The handle perfectly fits the average adult hand. Dual reliefs at the finger choil aid grip, and make opening easier.
