Why the Ladybug 3 Salt Belongs on Your Keys
Ocean-proof steel: Nitrogen-rich H2 stainless shrugs off corrosion from salt, chlorine, and sweat—ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, and summertime carry.
Real cutting power, micro size: The tall blade profile and thin, efficient grind deliver surprising slicing performance for cordage, zip ties, packaging, and trail snacks.
High-visibility safety: Marine Yellow FRN is easy to find in low light or cluttered packs and resists UV fading.
Grip that locks in: Bi-Directional Texturing™ provides forward and reverse traction, boosting control on a very compact handle.
Featherweight carry: No clip to snag—just drop it on a keyring or lanyard and forget it’s there until you need it.
Ambidextrous & reliable: Back Lock is strong and simple; Round Hole™ makes pinch opening easy from either hand.
Seki-City craft: Manufactured in Japan’s cutlery capital with precise fit, finish, and action.
