A large EDC knife doesn't always have to mean a large purchase. Blue Ridge Knives, with design help from ESEE, built the Avispa as a large knife option, perfect for those of you looking to get more blade for your buck. For a budget knife, the Avispa comes complete with an impressive set of features and materials: D2 steel, a stainless steel framelock, and G10 on the scale for durability, grip, and light weight. Materials aside, its utilitarian design makes it well-suited for daily carry both deployed and closed. The blade flicks open via dual thumbstuds, revealing a 3.5” long plain edge blade with no-nonsense drop point geometry for all-around tasks. When closed, it rides slim and secure in your pocket thanks to its four way configurable pocket clip. Finally, a lanyard hole on the back rounds out your carry options.
