14C28N - a martensitic chromium stainless steel is the latest development in the range of knife steels produced by Sandvik's Swedish mills. An optimized chemical composition with a unique combination provides superior quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness and corrosion resistance. By reducing the amount of carbon 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding nitrogen 0.11% (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly improved. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price / quality category!

Blade - wide, Drop Point type,  finished masking minor scratches with Stonewashed method, and then covered with a black coating. The small thickness of the blade, combined with a high, flat grind, gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearing ceramic supports the smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper). When opened, the flipper forms a mini-Guard to prevent your hand from slipping on the blade. A double-sided peg in the wedge can also be used to open it. On the back of the upper jimping wedge, a notched thumb rest. The whole is locked with a solid liner lock.

Black Stonewashed – a finishing method that combines two techniques. First, the blade is coated with a non-reflective black layer (Dark Coating), followed by a Stonewashed after the black coating is applied, the blade is subjected to a process of “stone bath”, which makes minor scratches created during use less visible. The end result is a unique aged look with a matte dark finish that is both stylish and practical. 

Handle - made of G10 composite, practically indestructible plastic, insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges and the rough textured and textured surface enhances comfort and sure grip. The open-backed design, fixed with steel spacer sleeves, reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. The pivot axis is decorated with a stylized Civivi brand logo. A two-position, right/left deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up).

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