There’s nothing like the real thing. The Original K.I.S.S.®
in the Dark, with its Tanto-inspired blade and bead-blast finish, is the revolutionary
high-tech statement by Knifemakers’ Guild member and K.I.S.S. designer
“Daddy K.I.S.S.” Ed Halligan. It stands for “Keep It Super
Simple.” It’s one honey of a knife, precision fine blanked for superior
fit and smooth operation.
Like all folding knives in the K.I.S.S. family, Ed Halligan’s
unique two-piece construction features an integral Frame Lock™, and a
breakthrough design which seals the cutting edge against the handle.
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.
Both blade and frame are 420J2 stainless steel in a black
Teflon coating. The Original K.I.S.S.® blade shape
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.
