Blade: Right at three inches of razor sharp 14c28n cutting edge, this modified drop point is hollow ground for exceptional slicing performance. The plain cutting edge delivers clean cuts and takes a razor like edge. Dual thumb studs or the integral flipper tab pair with the SpeedSafe assist for easy-opening. Some light jimping on the spine adds grip and the bead blast finish offers a discreet and non-reflective look.

Handle: Red anodized aluminum handle scales are Torx screwed to stainless steel liners, with one forming the lock. Aluminum is tough and lightweight with the Red anodization contrasting nicely with white logo and blasted hardware. The Leek is well-balanced and has a great feel in-hand. A Tip-Lock slider safety keeps the blade from deploying unintentionally when closed.
