Browning Trailside EDC 3" D2 Steel Folding Knife Green Micarta

The Browning Trailside EDC delivers reliable cutting performance in a compact 3-inch folding design built for everyday carry. This modified drop point blade combines D2 tool steel construction with a titanium finish for enhanced corrosion resistance and edge retention.

What Makes This Different

D2 tool steel provides superior edge retention compared to standard stainless steel blades, maintaining sharpness through extended use. The titanium coating adds a protective barrier against moisture and wear while reducing friction during cutting tasks. Green micarta handle scales offer secure grip texture that performs consistently in wet conditions, unlike smooth synthetic materials that become slippery.

Key Features

• 3-inch modified drop point blade optimized for versatile cutting tasks
• D2 tool steel construction with 58-60 HRC hardness rating
• Titanium finish coating for enhanced corrosion resistance
• Green micarta handle scales with textured grip surface
• Folding design with secure locking mechanism
• Compact profile suitable for pocket carry
• Plain edge configuration for clean cutting performance

The modified drop point blade geometry balances piercing capability with cutting efficiency, making it effective for rope work, package opening, and general utility tasks. D2 steel maintains a sharp edge significantly longer than 440C or AUS-8 alternatives, reducing the frequency of sharpening maintenance. The folding mechanism protects the blade during transport while keeping the overall length manageable for pocket carry.
