For
those who prefer all black knives, the byrd knife line now offers the BY04BK
stainless steel Meadowlark. Its handle and blade are coated with black electric
plating that eliminates the steel’s reflective quality subduing the knife’s
flash, making it less noticeable.
The
hollow-ground 8Cr13MoV blade is available with a plain or a combination plain/serrated
cutting edge. Shaped like a comet, the blade’s hole designates it’s a byrd product
and represents the quality standards and high manufacturing tolerances found
throughout the line. Capping the blade’s spine is a series of textured crosshatching
the knife industry calls jimping. Jimping grips the thumb holding it steadily
on the blade while cutting.
The
Black Meadowlark is right-handed with pre-drilled holes to attach the clip (also
black) either tip-up or tip-down. On the handle’s underside finger choils comfortably
position your grip and create the sensation that the knife is a controlled extension
of your hand. Cut out of the lock’s release is a David Boye Dent, a safety feature
so the handle can be tightly gripped without accidentally unlocking the lock
while cutting.
