The DX318 knife is the first of it's kind to combine our double lock technology with a rubberized handle. Utilizing our double lock technology, anyone can work with confidence knowing that the added safety prevents the knife from accidentally closing. The rubberized handle is molded over nylon to keep the rubber intact without the risk of peeling away. The notching on top of the blade allows for excellent grip and control of the knife. With COAST commitment to quality, the DX318 knife is backed by COAST lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
