PTC (Polyhedral Tungsten Carbide) - a flexible type of tungsten carbide that surpasses steel in terms of edge durability. Thanks to a new technology called StaySharp™ , it has become possible to produce blades with a hardness of 71HRC, which translates into incredibly long sharpness retention. Made with StaySharp Technology™, the blades remain flexible and are not brittle. Thanks to the unique properties of carbide, they retain a clean, sharp cutting edge longer than traditional steel blades. These properties make the material ideal for knife blades. And with an exceptional hardness of 71 HRC, simply put, they are the hardest and most durable blades ever produced.

Blade - modified Steepfoot (sheep's foot). A novelty is the raw carbide finish of the blade - its striking appearance was achieved by PTC grinding with fine diamonds. Unlike a steel blade, the Torino blade is completely rustproof, making it suitable for both fresh and salt water use. The thumb ramp features carefully crafted grooves, while the rest of the back and finger choil have comfortable chamfered edges. Ceramic ball bearings are responsible for the smooth, smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a double-sided thumb stud.

Recoil Lock - an innovative blade locking system, a design by respected knifemaker and designer, Snecx Tan. The two-way lock secures the blade in the open position. Closing the knife is done by sliding the backspacer backwards, which eliminates accidental unlocking of the blade.

Handle - bright red G-10 plastic grips make it easy to quickly retrieve the folder. The 3D-treated deep milling of the cover reduces the weight of the knife and provides a more secure grip. A two-position left/right PVD-coated titanium clip allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up (blade tip up) position. The clip features a series of mathematically designed 5 circles cut to reflect the Fibonacci sequence - a trademark of the Sandrin Knives brand.
