The AKLYS is built for punching and flipping applications. Medium-fast taper allows for ideal tip-load to deploy punch rigs with devastating accuracy and flip offerings in close quarters. Upon hookset the load transfers to the blank’s powerful middle to hammer thick-gauge hooks home, anchored by a dominant butt section that keeps monsters helplessly pinned to the underside of thick punching mats. Ideal rear grip length and counterweighting allows for balanced, pendulum-like ergonomics for all-day punching and flipping endurance.
