8Cr13MoV - an easy-to-sharpen stainless knife steel, equivalent to Japanese AUS-8 steel. A high content of 13.0% chromium (Cr) and an average of 0.8% carbon (C) provide excellent corrosion resistance, while the addition of the alloying elements molybdenum 0.30% (Mo), vanadium 0.25% (V) and nickel 0.20% (Ni) increase the steel's strength and wear resistance. 8Cr13MoV has a high hardness in the 57-62 HRC range.
Blade - with the company's Leaf-Shaped profile (leaf shape), coated in black. Plain (smooth) blade was derived with Full Flat Grind. The enlarged 14mm round SpyderHole cutout (Spyderco patent) makes it easier to open the folder with cold or wet hands. The notched section of the Blade's back, ramp (spine jimping) gives solid support for the thumb which makes it easier to operate the knife. The whole is locked with the proven Liner Lock.
The skeleton - made of stainless steel, openwork for stress relief, which provides exceptional strength of construction, while forming the basis of Michael Walker's Liner Lock blade locking mechanism with notched liner. The whole was bolted together with torx screws for easy unfolding and folding of the folder.
Handle - non-slip, bi-directional textured covers (Bi-Directional Texturing) strengthen the grip even with wet hands. Made of FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon), a fiberglass-reinforced nylon plastic. The ultra-lightweight design of the Handle grips and the open-backed construction, so called, reduce weight by almost 12 percent compared to a folder with a G-10 handle. A metal clip with four-way (up/down, right/left) 4-way clip positions allows the knife to be carried in a tip-down position. In the back of the lanyard hole, an enlarged hole for a cord.

Przeczytaj!
This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
