Overview
Design by Ray Laconico
Description
The 1849 Sirius is a sleek gentleman's flipper knife designed by Ray Laconico. Its clean lines and unobtrusive profile provide comfort while carrying it in your hand or pocket. The drop point blade is deployed either the front flipper tab or the recessed thumb stud, and the blade flies open thanks to Artisan's standard ceramic ball bearing pivot design that works so well. When closed, the blade almost disappears into the handle and the thumb stud moves discreetly into a milled groove to reduce the profile as much as possible. The handles are comfortable in the hand and come in a variety of materials to suit what you are looking for. With a simple, clean pocket clip, the Sirius is easy to carry and impresses in any situation you would bring it in to.
