The Stretch™ 2 XL Lightweight revolutionized the concept of the ultra-lean “magnum-sized” folding knife. This expression of the design swaps the original injection-molded handle for heftier construction featuring precision machined gray G-10 scales, full, skeletonized stainless steel liners, and a stout stainless steel backspacer. Equally unique, the full-flat-ground blade of this knife is crafted from CPM® CRU-WEAR®—a specially formulated air-hardening tool steel enhanced by the Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) process that offers superior wear resistance, excellent toughness, and an ultra-fine, extremely homogeneous grain structure. This knife’s satin-finished PlainEdge™ blade proudly features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole that works in concert with its back lock mechanism and four-position clip to make all aspects of its carry and operation completely ambidextrous.
