The Original K.I.S.S., with its Tanto-inspired blade and bead-blast finish, is the revolutionary high-tech statement by Knifemakers Guild member and K.I.S.S. designer Daddy K.I.S.S. Ed Halligan. It stands for Keep It Super Simple. Its one honey of a knife, precision fine blanked for superior fit and smooth operation. Features an integral frame lock, and a breakthrough design which seals the cutting edge against the handle.
A thumb stud is used to one-hand open the blade, and as the blade is fully rotated open, the frame lock snaps crisply in behind the blade to give a sound lockup. The blade can be closed with one hand, simply by releasing the frame lock.
The Original K.I.S.S. blade shape is Tanto-inspiredChisel-Point grind on the front and flat on the backside—so that when the blade is closed onto its handle/frame, the precision fit effectively seals the cutting edge to the frame, even though its exposed. Both Razor-Sharp and Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edge grinds are available. Both blade and frame are 420J2 stainless steel in a fine bead-blast finish.
The K.I.S.S. in the Dark features blade, frame, clip and hardware in black non-reflective plating that is tough and long lasting.
The design of the K.I.S.S. series pocket/money clip permits them to be used in a variety of ways: clipped to the pocket; as a money clip knife; and with split-ring or lanyard, as a key chain knife.
