CPM 20CV - one of the best tool steels, a premium American 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.

SuperLock- an innovative blade locking system, a design by respected knifemaker and designer, Snecx Tan. The two-way lock secures the blade in the open position. The knife is locked by sliding the backspacer backwards, which eliminates accidental unlocking of the blade. Extremely easy disassembly allows access to the knife mechanism for cleaning or maintenance.

Blade of Drop Point type finished masking minor scratches with a bath of Stonewashed pebbles and then coated in black. It opens with a triangular opening in the blade (Thumb Hole), so it can be easily used by right and left-handed people. Ceramic ball bearings are responsible for the smooth operation of the opening mechanism . The small thickness of the wedge, combined with a high, flat grind, gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. The entire blade is locked with Snecx's proprietary Superlock lock.

Handle - thick pieces of blackened solid titanium in which several holes were made to reduce weight . For contrast, the holes were finished with gold anodization. The grips have been screwed to the titanium backspacer. The simplicity and solidity of the design give assurance of many years of use. Multi-position clip (right/left) made of titanium, allows to carry the knife in tip-up and tip-down positions . The protruding part of the backspacer contains a lanyard hole - a hole for threading a safety or decorative cord.

Case - the knife is packed in a zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.

Additional accessories - an additional pivot screw is included.
