D2 tool steel

D2 steel is characterized by high wear resistance, achieved through a combination of chromium, carbon, vanadium, and manganese. It is hardened to 60–61 HRC, making it exceptionally well-suited for abrasive cutting.

G10 – handle material

The handle is made of G10—a composite of fiberglass and resin. The material is durable, wear-resistant, and ribbed for a secure, non-slip grip.

Bearings for Smooth Opening

The built-in bearings are made of high-quality hardened steel and phosphor bronze. They ensure smooth opening and proper centering of the blade with every use.

Liner Lock mechanism

The Liner Lock is one of the most common locking mechanisms used in folding knives. A side spring on the inside of the handle slides behind the blade when it is fully open and holds it securely in place.

To release it, simply press the spring to the side with your thumb. The knife can be closed with one hand without changing your grip—which is convenient when your other hand is occupied.
