This one pairs the Frag pattern body with Nebula anodizing, and no two Nebula finishes come out the same.

The reason it is not is the action. A weighted internal key and firm spring tension give it a deliberate click going out and a clack coming back, and that is the whole appeal. It is the only tool in the drawer that people fidget with on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Nebula Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNebula is anodizing, not paint. The color lives in the oxide layer on the aluminum, so it will not chip off, and because it is done in small batches the layering comes out differently every time. Hold two side by side and they will not match. That is the point of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReplaceable Blades Are the Feature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA utility knife never needs sharpening because you never sharpen it. When the edge goes, the blade comes out and a new one goes in for pocket change. For breaking down boxes, opening packaging, and cutting things you would never put a MagnaCut edge near, it is the right tool and it saves your good knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Rivery MFG\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRivery Manufacturing started as a small CNC shop in Sevierville, Tennessee and grew around the Zero.
