M390 - a martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of "wire" during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of 20.0% (Cr) doped with 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened between 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Blade - Spear Point type with clearly marked belly, finished with elegant satin finish. The small thickness of the blade, combined with a high, flat grind, gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearing system aids in the smooth and quick opening of the blade, which can be opened with a Thumb Plate on the back of the blade or with a quick flipper flipper (index-finger flipper). When opened, the flipper forms a mini-guard to prevent the hand from slipping on the blade. The whole thing is locked with the proven frame lock.
Handle - presentation side made of G-10 plastic (fiberglass compressed with synthetic resin), lock side made of titanium. Both sides have a milled texture for improved grip security. The covers were screwed to a titanium backspacer, resulting in the desired rigidity and strength of construction. The right-side deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up position (blade tip up). At the end of the Handle lanyard hole, a hole for a rope.
