Not only is black is the most popular color in knives in recent years, but it has real functional value. It is less reflective and creates a protective barrier against corrosion. Today's technology allows the blade, frame and clip to receive a special Teflon® plating that is tough and long lasting.
K.I.S.S.® stand for "Keep It Super Simple." It's one honey of a knife, precision fine blanked for superior fit and smooth operation. Ed Halligan's unique two-piece construction features an integral Frame Lock™, and a breakthrough design which seals the cutting edge against the handle. Blade and frame are 420J2 stainless steel.
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 K.I.S.S.® in the Dark blade is Tanto-inspired-Chisel-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 it's exposed.
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 splitring or lanyard, a a key chain knife.
