Description:
The Krake Raken (formerly known as the Kraken) is a top tier flipper featuring 7075 aluminum alloy handles, AEB-L stainless steel blade, and a refined bushing system. The highly anticipated Krake Raken balisong butterfly knife offers the first live-blade bali from Squid Industries. It features all of the precision-engineered smoothness of a Squid trainer, updated with a beautifully finished tanto/bowie blade. The channel constructed aluminum handles are built with rounded edges, a crowned spine, and bushings. The Krake Raken has been upgraded from 6061 to a 7075 aluminum alloy, which boasts a higher strength and is more durable to drops and use. This third iteration of the Krake Raken, the Version 2.5, integrates an improved aesthetic and performance. The handle ends have been rounded to decrease damage from drops and the handle texturing is now deeper, providing a better grip. The zen pins have been upgraded with harder steel to preserve the gap between the handles, and the bushing system has been redesigned to further reduce—or even negate—handle play. Lastly, additional machining has been added to the sides for better control. Features:
