Less a pocket knife than a working knife. The No.09 steps the blade up to 3.51 inches and the handle up with it, which is what you want when the job is processing kindling, breaking down a fish, or anything else where a No.08 leaves you wishing for another half inch.

Still only 2 oz, still the same beechwood handle and Sandvik 12C27 stainless blade, still locked open by the Virobloc ring.
