CPM 20CV - one of the finest tool steels, US premium martensitic stainless steel. Produced by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy / Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) method. The CPM process creates a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. Designed to provide better wear resistance while maintaining corrosion resistance at the highest level. This super steel is comparable to Bohler's M390 steel or Carpenter's CTS-204P. According to some knife manufacturers, 20CV is the best of these three steels in terms of edge retention. It consists of 19.0% carbon (C), 20.0% chromium (Cr), 4.0% vanadium (V), 1.0% molybdenum (Mo) and 0.6% tungsten (W). The high percentage of chromium with a touch of molybdenum makes 20CV one of the best high-end corrosion-resistant steels.
Nested Liner Lock, a modification of the liner-lock by nesting the liner of the locking mechanism in the grip.
Blade - clip point type, hand finished with Satin method. Strongly outlined belly extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearing ceramic ensures an extremely smooth opening of the blade with the flipper flipper so it can be easily used by right and left-handed people. The entire blade is locked with the proven and popular nested liner lock.
Jungle Wear Fat Carbon - the latest design from Fat Carbon, a company specializing in the production of epoxy-carbon (carbon fiber) composites for, among other things, knife handle grips! The unique "Jungle Wear" design was inspired by the importance of conservation and the need to preserve rainforest resources, which produce 20% of the world's oxygen needs. Concerned with sustainability, Fat Carbon uses only renewable energy sources to produce its composites, including "Jungle Wear."
Handle - made from a single piece of 6AI4V titanium, machined on CNC milling machines. Monolithic skeleton (body) of the highest strength, which is a solid structural element that guarantees the rigidity and strength of the entire structure. On both sides, the artful inlays (inlays) of Jungle Wear Fat Carbon contrast beautifully with the titanium. Only a few companies are able to make the Handle with such incredible accuracy! The two-position (right/left) titanium deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up (blade tip up) position. Comes complete with a left-side clip and titanium cap. On the back of the Handle a lanyard hole, a place for a decorative or safety line.
Case - included zippered soft nylon case with manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
