James A. Keating Is A Master-At-Arms And Acclaimed Knife Designer. He Joined Forces With Spyderco Several Years Ago To Develop A Knife Called The Chinook. The Original Design Has Since Been Refined, Tweaked And Upgraded Several Times And Has A New Name, The James Keating Chinook 3.
Like The Original, The Chinook 3 Is An Ace In The Field Or As A Martial Arts Knife Where Hard-Use Is A Certainty. Lock Strength Requirements Are Higher For An Outdoor Or Martial Arts Folder So The Chinook 3’S Back-Lock Is One Of The Strongest Found On Any Spyderco Folder. The G-10 Handle Blankets A Pair Of Full-Length Steel Liners Nested Inside Which Are Skeletonized For Strength Without Added Weight. Jimping (Texturing) On The Blade’S Spine Generates Tactile Resistance Keeping The Knife Slip-Free And Keeping The Hand Controlled And Connected On The Handle. Classified As A Modified Bowie, The Cpm S30V Blade Has Also Been Upgraded To Fully Flat-Ground From The Cutting Edge To Spine. A Four-Way Clip Carries Tip-Up Or Down And Left Or Right-Handed For Several Draw Options.
