Hydro

The Hydro is a titanium live blade that Squid Industries spent two years prototyping. It uses 6AL-4V titanium sandwich handles with hidden zen pins and a double-angle chamfer, translucent Ultem spacers with built-in jimping, and a precision-tuned bushing system. The tanto blade is 14C28N stainless, stonewashed, offered sharpened or unsharpened and with an optional DLC coating. It is light and nimble, suited to quick flippers, and can be upgraded with full-length spacers.
