Tactical EDC from Jacksonville. Racing green aluminum with Sandvik steel.

The Nekama I is Bear & Son's modern slide lock folder built in their Jacksonville, Alabama facility. This version pairs a 3.25" 14C28N modified tanto blade with a racing green anodized aluminum handle. The slide lock mechanism mirrors a crossbar-style lock, providing ambidextrous one-handed closing with solid lockup. Ball bearings in the pivot keep the action smooth and consistent. Lightweight aluminum handle, reversible tip-up clip, and ambidextrous thumb studs round out a clean, capable everyday carry.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply: The Nekama I is the kind of no-fuss USA-made folder that carries without excuses. The racing green is a sharp combination, and the 14C28N tanto is a legitimate blade for daily use. Made in Alabama at a price that makes it easy to say yes.
