The odd handle shape also serves another purpose: creating safety and ergonomics. When mated with the blade, it creates a trio of finger grooves to help keep your grip secure on it, even during tougher cutting tasks.
Similarly, the blade shape ensures that, despite how short it is, it is still useful for longer and more precision-focused cuts alike. It also comes to a nice piercing tip, which helps with everyone’s favorite EDC task: opening packages.
Dodo DNA
Materially and mechanically, this knife still shares a lot in common with its brethren. However, there are also some key differences.
As is typical with Dodos of the past, this one has an M4 super steel blade, offering outstanding edge retention, sharpening, wear resistance and more. But it also gets a black DLC coating, which ups the durability even further and gives it some corrosion resistance that M4 typically doesn’t offer.
