Elmax - considered "the best all-round knife steel" a modern alloy steel with a high content of 17.30% (Cr), carbon 1.70% (C), vanadium 3.00% (V), molybdenum 1.00% (Mo), silicon 0.80% (Si). Hardened in the range of 57-62 HRC. Produced by powder metallurgy method of mixing finely powdered materials, pressing to the desired shape, and then heating to sinter or bind the material. It is characterized by extreme edge holding, high wear and corrosion resistance, and dimensional stability. Manufactured at Böhler-Uddeholm steel mills in Austria.
Blade - Clip Point style with a clearly marked belly, finished with a scratch-masking Stonewashed finish. The thickness of the blade and the high, flat grind give excellent cutting properties, combined with extreme durability. Ball bearing system aids in the smooth opening of the blade, which can be opened with a quick flipper flipper. The flipper consists of a small lever (protrusion) that extends beyond the back of the Handle when the Blade is closed. In the open position, it acts as a stinger, protecting the hand from slipping on the blade. Liner-Lock mechanism with patented SMART A.S.L.S. additional security.
Handle - pieces of solid Canvas Micarta, a composite of pressure-pressed canvas with synthetic resin, insensitive to weather, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The grips were screwed to a CNC-milled backspacer, which means that such a design is virtually indestructible. Chamfering of the cover eliminates sharp edges for comfort, and the fore finger groove made on the front improves grip security. A right-handed, single-position deep clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up (tip up) position. At the end of the Handle lanyard hole, a 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.
