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 an excellent choice for abrasive cutting.

G10 – handle material

The handle is made of G10—a composite of fiberglass and resin. The material is strong, wear-resistant, and ribbed to prevent slipping. It ranks among the most durable materials in its class.

Bearings for Smooth Opening

The built-in bearings are made of hardened steel and phosphor bronze. They ensure smooth and easy opening, while keeping the blade properly centered.

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 holds the blade in the open position. To close the knife, simply press the spring to the side with your thumb—this can be done with one hand without changing your grip.
