The Browning Hidden Hollow EDC delivers reliable cutting performance in a compact folding design built for everyday carry. This small-profile knife combines premium D2 tool steel construction with tactical aesthetics that complement both professional and outdoor environments.
What Makes This Different
D2 tool steel sets this knife apart from standard stainless options through superior edge retention and wear resistance. The black oxide stonewashed finish reduces glare while providing corrosion protection that outperforms basic coatings. The 2.25-inch blade length maximizes cutting capability while remaining compliant with most local carry restrictions.
Key Features
- D2 tool steel blade with exceptional edge retention and toughness
- 2.25-inch drop point blade optimized for versatile cutting tasks
- Black oxide stonewashed finish for durability and low-visibility operation
- OD Green G10 handle scales provide secure grip in wet conditions
- Folding design with locking mechanism for safe carry and deployment
- Compact profile suitable for pocket carry and EDC applications
- Plain edge configuration for clean cuts and easy maintenance
The D2 steel composition delivers cutting performance that maintains sharpness through extended use cycles. Field testing demonstrates reliable lock-up under normal cutting loads, while the G10 handle material resists impact damage and environmental degradation. The stonewashed finish masks minor scratches and wear patterns that develop during regular carry.
