North Mountain Blade Chop 2 2406-OR – Upgraded Best-Seller in High-Vis Orange G10
The North Mountain Blade Chop 2 2406-OR is the upgraded 2406-series evolution of North Mountain Blade's all-time best-selling CHOP platform: a 3.5" SLD-Magic san mai Japanese tanto blade, button lock with reinforced brass-inlay frame, flipper opening, and a ceramic bearing pivot with brass bearing cage for effortless, fluid deployment. Bright orange G10 scales add secure grip and high visibility for everyday carry and outdoor use.
The 2406 series adds a CNC-machined thumb disc modeled after a .45 ACP casing — slightly smaller than a real round, purely aesthetic, and fully left-hand friendly — plus a push plate on the blade for disc-based deployment alongside the flipper tab.
