BLADE STYLE

Clip-Point

Blade contains a sharp beak, typically forward of the midpoint, as if the tip has been 'clipped off.'

BLADE STEEL

CPM-MagnaCut Stainless Steel (60-62 HRC)

A new approach to stainless tool steel that eliminates chromium carbides from the microstructure. The result: a combination of properties with similar toughness and edge retention to non-stainless steels like CPM-CruWear and CPM-4V, with the addition of excellent corrosion resistance and strength.

HANDLE

6061-T6 Aluminum/Canvas Micarta

Crafted from durable, lightweight 6061-T6 Aluminum with rugged Canvas Micarta inlays, this handle offers a perfect blend of precision machining, corrosion resistance, and enhanced grip with a tactile, organic feel.

OPENING ACTION

Manual

Manually opened knives must be opened 100% from the closed position to the open position by the user.
