Kubey Nobel Knife Yellow G10, Blackwashed 14C26N (KU236N)

Nobel Yellow G10, Blackwashed was created for versatile use, offering users the perfect combination of durability, functionality and elegant design. Blade made of Sandvik 14C26N stainless steel provides exceptional corrosion resistance and long-lasting cutting edge sharpness. Handle made of durable G10 composite is designed to provide a secure grip even in harsh conditions. The textured surface facilitates control during use, while subtle grooves improve grip. The liner lock mechanism ensures safe use by stably locking the blade in the open position. The intuitive flipper allows for smooth, quick one-handed opening, enhancing ease of use. Thanks to its compact design, the knife is perfect as an everyday use tool (EDC), fitting comfortably in your pocket.

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!

Vacuum & Cryogenic - 14C28N steel has undergone a specialized heat treatment process involving two key steps. Vacuum Heat Treatment - the steel is quenched in a vacuum environment, which minimizes oxidation and ensures more uniform metal properties. This process increases the strength and structural integrity of the steel. Cryogenic Treatment Once heated, the steel is rapidly cooled to extremely low temperatures, often below -148°F (-100°C). This transformation transforms residual austenite into martensite, significantly increasing hardness, wear resistance and overall durability. Thanks to these advanced processes, 14C28N steel delivers exceptional performance, offering both razor-sharp edge retention and outstanding blade durability.

Blade - wide, Clip Point type, finished to mask minor scratches from use using the Stonewashed method, and then coated with a black coating. The gently curved cutting edge converges towards the tip of the blade. The thickness of the blade, combined with a high, flat grind, results in excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings are responsible for the smooth and smooth operation of the mechanism and support the opening of the blade with a quick index-finger flipper when opened acting as a crossguard. On the back of the upper jimping wedge, a notched thumb rest. Liner Lock mechanism.

Handle - grips made of G10 composite, a material extremely mechanically durable and practically completely resistant to weather and chemicals, textured for improved grip security, screwed to the steel frame of the knife. The so-called open-backed design attached by steel spacer sleeves reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. The simple, sturdy design gives you the assurance of many years of use. A fore finger groove improves grip security and creates a mini-guard to prevent your hand from slipping on the blade. The pivot axis is decorated with a stylized manufacturer's logo. A two-position (right/left) metal deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up).
