Liong Mah Design (L.M.D.) Folding Knife 2.77″ Satin Combo Blade, G10 Handle, Slipjoint (non-locking) 6521

The Liong Mah series from Columbia River Knife and Tool company is composed of simple and inexpensive folding pocket knives that are easy to carry and simple to deploy. They have a smooth, shaped G10 handle with a deep pocket clip. The blade opens without locking and the hand guard and thumb position orients the knife so that the easy closing shouldn’t effect your work. Because it doesn’t lock open, however, don’t buy this knife for a lot of tough work with odd holding positions because the slipjoint mechanism does not keep the blade in the open position easily.

Designer Liong Mah has a simple purity to his knife designs, which transcend old style qualities with modern technologies and materials.

The #5 and #6 folding pocket knives feature Mah’s deep, hollow ground blade style that provides a stout cutting edge from tip to choil and finger guard. Broadly shaped G10 scales use finger grooves and surface profile to afford versatile grip even with its desirably small stature. You will find the slip joint locking mechanism a refreshing throwback in a contemporary design. And the fob/tether is a nicely added benefit.

The blade for Design #6 is dressed up with the new Veff Flat Top Serrations for superior cutting of fibrous materials.

For the knife user who wants maximum blade in a “low-drag” carry, these are it.
