Kubey - one of the largest manufacturers producing knives of excellent quality at a great price! The motto of the company is "An Edge Above the Rest" / "Blade above all". With the use of high-speed CNC machine tools, milling machines, laser cutting or custom hand finishing, the brand focuses on quality workmanship and innovative approaches to design.

AUS-10 - Japanese stainless steel, often compared to 440C series steel, and for good reason, as the compositions are similar, but these minor differences make AUS-10 harder (hardened usually to around 60 HRC) and dulls more slowly, without losing its rust resistance. Knives made of this steel are relatively inexpensive and will be a great choice if our budget is not too high and we care about stainless.

Blade - drop point type, finished with a scratch-masking and glare-preventing Bead Blasted finish. The long cutting edge, with a prominent belly, converges towards the needle-sharp tip of the wide blade. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearing ceramic bearings are responsible for the smooth and smooth operation of the mechanism and support the opening of the blade with a fast front flipper (index-finger front flipper), we can also open the knife with a double-sided peg in the wedge (Thumb Stud). On the back of the upper jimping wedge, a notched thumb rest. Liner-Lock mechanism.

ULTEM™ - a plastic belonging to the family of Polyethermoids or simply PEI. This material is characterized primarily by high mechanical and impact strength with a very high strength-to-weight ratio. It is also characterized by high thermal resistance (180⁰C) and high chemical resistance to all kinds of solvents (synthetic and natural), lubricants or other chemicals. Adding to this total insensitivity to weather conditions, we get an ideal material for knife handles.

Handle - grips made of transparent Ultem™ plastic, textured to improve grip confidence, are bolted to the knife's steel frame. The so-called open-backed design without the typical backspacer, fastened together with steel spacer sleeves for easy cleaning. The simple, sturdy construction gives assurance of many years of use. Pivot decorated with stylized manufacturer's logo. Two-position (right/left) steel deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up). Above the clip a lanyard hole, a hole for threading a safety or decorative cord.
