Why the Bestech Liger BTKG61E?
Keanu Alfaro's Liger design gives the wharncliffe blade form a modern, purposeful package. D2 steel in Black Stonewash provides high edge retention and wear resistance with a finish that conceals carry marks. Bestech's B-Lock is a secure bar lock variant that engages positively and releases cleanly. Purple G10 scales make the BTKG61E the boldest color option in the Liger lineup, backed by ceramic bearings and a G10 backspacer that keeps the closed profile clean.
