Form meets function in Peak Spec’s latest piece of EDC gear: the Paramount Pocket Knife. This practical folding knife features a sleek design and lightweight blade that can tackle just about any task. The boxy handle, made from G10 Composite, is simple. No excess bells and whistles. The grip fits comfortably in your hand and the laminate material makes for a quick, simple clean should it get dirty. Plus, it comes equipped with a handy key ring and belt clip (which can be detached). The highlight of the Paramount, though, is the blade. The razor-sharp D2 premium steel blade flips out of the handle smoothly thanks to an added ball-bearing. The thumb stud also means you can access the blade quickly with one hand. Thanks to the high carbon content, the Paramount sheepsfoot blade can handle regular wear with virtually no corrosion. The Paramount was envisioned to be a sleek, design-forward daily knife. And Peak Spec built it to last. Best of all, this highly functional knife is priced affordably making it a great starter EDC knife. You can back the Peak Spec Paramount, which has already well surpassed its funding goal, on Kickstarter for as little as $35, a discount from the projected $60 MSRP.
