Custom Breaker Integral with an integral handle
A compact version of Brian Tighe's Breaker Integral folding knife. The key feature of this design is its integral handle — a single, homogeneous component with a horseshoe-shaped cross-section.
The blade is forged from RWL-34 powdered steel from the Swedish metallurgical company Damasteel — a world leader in knife steels and damascus. The blade features a multi-grind configuration: flat grinds toward the tip and a hollow, lens-shaped grind in the recurve area. The blade is satin-finished. In addition to the flipper tab, the Tighe Breaker Integral also features a symmetrical thumb stud, making it equally comfortable to open with either the left or right hand.
The pivot houses a hinged bearing system. The knife's lock is a button-lock.
The handle is crafted from anodized titanium and features comfortable finger contours. The design includes a zirconium pocket clip and a lanyard hole for convenient EDC carry.
