QSP Woodpecker QS116-A II Frame Lock Folding Knife

QSP Woodpecker QS116-A II Frame Lock Folding Knife

The QSP Knife Woodpecker QS116-A II Folding Knife draws inspiration from the bird it's named after, a creature valued for its role as a tree "surgeon" in forest environments, removing harmful pests like bark beetles. This knife project reflects that significance, earning its place in QSP's premium line of folding knives. Crafted from high-quality European Böhler M390 steel and titanium, its universal and ergonomic design allows for everyday use, handling both light tasks and heavy-duty demands. As sturdy as the beak of a woodpecker, this knife fearlessly tackles even the toughest cutting, chopping, and slicing tasks.

Featuring a stable blade with a flat grind and drop point style, the Woodpecker folding knife proves to be versatile and suitable for various tasks. The blade's jimping on the back aids in making precise cuts with thumb pressure. Made from premium Böhler M390 steel, the blade offers exceptional long-term sharpness, resistance to corrosion, and overall durability, making it a reliable companion for extended use.

The knife's smooth opening is facilitated by a flipper protruding from the blade, doubling as a handguard to ensure a secure grip while preventing accidental slips. Utilizing ceramic ball bearings, the unfolding process is effortless and fluid. Safety is a priority, and the frame lock ensures stable and secure blade retention, guaranteeing peace of mind during heavy tasks.

For the handle, the Woodpecker utilizes lightweight yet incredibly durable titanium. This hard metal not only withstands impacts and mechanical damage but also adds a touch of elegance to the knife's design. A titanium clip is included for convenient pocket carry or attachment to a backpack or organizer. Moreover, an additional hole above the clip allows for easy threading of paracord or other accessories, further safeguarding against potential knife loss.

To enhance the knife's versatility, the manufacturer provides a practical QSP nylon sheath as an optional accessory for carrying or storing the Woodpecker model. This thoughtful addition ensures the knife is protected and readily accessible, making it a reliable tool for both everyday carry and heavy-duty work, embodying the spirit of its namesake, the woodpecker.
