This is one of Kirby’s most popular Models ~ an Orion Flipper  

This is a tough full sized Tactical with wonderful ergonomics!   The Titanium Frame is very thick, it has a uniform Glass Bead Blasted  finish and then overlayed with OD Green Linen Micarta that has some great looking grain.  The Micarta is fitted to the Carbon Fiber bolsters so precisely that it appears to be one piece ~ you cannot even feel the joint. 

The overall feel is very hand filling yet comfortable. The beefy Recurve  Blade was hand ground using the new Carpenter CTS-XHP Super Steel ~ it is perfectly centered and literally leaps out when using the Flipper due to the IKBS and Kirby’s excellent blade balance.  The thick Titanium Liner Lock engages early and very securely.

  The deep carry Titanium Pocket clip has been given a Grey KG Gun Kote for max surface durability.  

A superb knife in every respect!
