The blade shape itself is unlike any other and the defining feature of a Nessmuk knife: typically a keen-edged 4- to 5-inch blade with a hump on the spine near the upswept point and a generous belly.

The knife is deployed via ambidextrous thumb studs, pivoting on a ceramic ball bearing, and held in place via a frame lock on the off-side. The non-reversible pocket clip is sculpted from titanium.
