139,05 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.

Steel
BECUT is BESTAR's patent stainless steel, used to make knives for industry and deep sea fishing. The steel has very high corrosion resistance and strength at low temperatures. Thanks to its niobium content, the steel ensures very high cutting efficiency.
Blade
Drop point type finished with Stonewashed technology masking scratches and preventing glare. Light belly button extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the head converging towards a needle sharp tip of the knife in combination with high, flat grind gives excellent cutting properties. The blade is set on Teflon pads that support the opening mechanism, thanks to which the folder can be efficiently unfolded by means of a disc on the back of the head (thumb disc). This solution allows for trouble-free opening of the knife by both left- and right-handed people. The whole is locked with a proven liner lock.
Handle
Chamfered facings of green micarta (compressed canvas with synthetic resin). Surface of cover plates with fine texture, slightly profiled for better grip. The whole mounted on a stainless steel frame. To stiffen the frame has been screwed to aluminum backspacer in contrasting orange color. Simple, solid construction provides assurance of long-term use. In the backspacer there is a hidden lanyard hole, which is a place for security or decorative cord. A single-position right-handed metal wire clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in the tip-up position (blade tip up).
