Damascus - Damascus stainless steel blade with a unique design. A blade consisting of two different types of steel forged and put together in different ways getting this amazing pattern. It is characterized by high hardness in the range of 58-60 HRC.

Blade - sheepsfoot type with an aggressive shape, finished with etching that emphasizes the unique damascus patterns The small thickness of the blade combined with a high flat grind (Flat Grind) gives an excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings support the smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a quick flipper flipper (index-finger flipper), so it can be easily used by right- and left-handed people. We can also open it using a hole in the wedge. On the back of the wedge a slight recess where we can place our thumb for more precise work. The whole thing is locked with a proven and popular frame lock with a steel insert to prevent wiping of the lock face.

Handle - made of solid titanium 6AL4V. The handle has been heat-treated to achieve a unique blue-based color pattern. Chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges for comfort and improve grip security. The solid titanium backspacer to which the grips are attached guarantees the rigidity and strength of the entire structure. A deep finger undercut (fore finger groove) improves grip confidence. A single-position, right-hand titanium clip allows the knife to be carried in tip-up position, with the tip of the blade upward.

Sheath - an added kydex sheath with a ball chain, allowing the knife to be worn around the neck.
