Viper Italo Orange G10, Satin M390 by Fabrizio Silvestrelli Knife (V5948GO)

Italo Orange G10, Satin unique E.D.C. folder aimed at discerning buyers, combines elegant Italian design with the high quality for which the Viper brand is famous. Modern folding knife made with advanced materials and technical solutions, design by knifemaker Fabrizio Silvestrelli.

Design by Fabrizio Silvestrelli fruit of a collaboration with the esteemed Italian knifemaker, president of Corporazione Italiana Coltellinai (CIC), the Italian knife guild. His designs are characterized by rounded blade and handle shapes. Designed by Fabrizio Silvestrelli, the knife exudes Italian style and solid construction.

M390 Microclean® - the highest quality modern tool steel. Manufactured using powder metallurgy technology with extremely high corrosion and abrasion resistance. High-chromium steel with 20.0% chromium (Cr) and 4.0% vanadium (V) doping. Hardened in the range of 59-61 HRC. The steel has undergone vacuum and cryogenic treatments and double tempering. Manufactured at the Böhler-Uddeholm steelworks in Austria.

Blade - Spear Point type with a clearly marked belly emphasizes the elegant Satin finish. The small thickness of the blade, combined with a high, flat grind, gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. A ball bearing system aids in the smooth and quick opening of the blade, which can be opened with a Thumb Plate on the back of the blade or with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper). When opened, the flipper forms a mini-guard to prevent the hand from slipping on the blade. The whole thing is locked with the proven liner lock.

Handle - made of G-10 plastic (pressure-pressed fiberglass with synthetic resin), milled texture for improved grip confidence. Covers were screwed to a titanium backspacer, which makes such a design virtually indestructible. The right-side deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up position (with the tip of the blade up). At the end of the handle lanyard hole, a hole for a rope.
