Steel

VG-10 - a grade of stainless tool alloy steel developed in Japan specifically for making premium blades and knives. The steel recipe was created by Takefu Special Steel co. Ltd, whose headquarters are located in Takefu, Fukui Prefecture. Initially used in the manufacture of kitchen knives, it quickly found use as an excellent material for utility blades. One of the companies that has contributed most to the popularity of VG-10 steel is Spyderco. Due to import restrictions, almost all VG-10 steel knives are made in Japan.

Blade

Straight spined profile, 3 mm thick. Made of Japanese VG-10 stainless steel (high resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage), hardened to 59-61 HRC. Plain blade was derived from the Full Flat Grind. This grind reduces the weight of the knife and improves cutting performance. Round SpyderHole cutout (Spyderco patent) allows opening the folder even with a glove. Solid Back-Lock with additional Boye Detent notch, preventing accidental release of the head lock when the knife is firmly gripped. Corrugated thumb ramp and Finger Choil with contoured index finger rest between handle and cutting edge for easy knife control.

Handle

Black color. Covered with non-slip Bi-Directional Texturing (Bi-Directional Texturing) reinforces the grip even with wet hands. Facings made of FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon). Folder is equipped with a solid metal clip with 4-way clip positions (up/down, right/left).
