Bestech QUQU Red Aluminum, Black DLC 14C28N by Gogo Knife (BG57B-4)
- QUQU Red Aluminum, Black DLC remarkable design by Gogo, who with the help of Polish designer Ostap Hel created a small knife for Bestech that can be a great option for a "first knife for a child". It will also work well as a backup in a backpack.
Ququ Red Aluminum, Black DLC is the remarkable story of a little girl Gogo, who wanted a knife that resembled her favorite cricket. And usually in life, dreams end. But if your mother is the co-owner of Bestech and the extremely talented "uncle" Ostap Helium helps you with the design, dreams become reality. Starting with Gogo's idea, Ostap Helium began tweaking, refining and fine-tuning the details. Along the way, he decided on such a specification of the Ququ that this one could belong to the unique category of knives that could be the first cutting tool for a responsible child. This design, first and foremost, was to meet the specific expectations and needs of an 8-year-old girl; an adorable little tool that can be carried with her and easily handled during outings and perform basic cutting tasks.
14C28N - a martensitic chromium stainless steel - is the latest development in a range of knife steels produced by Sweden's Sandvik steel mills. An optimized chemical composition with a unique combination provides superior quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness and corrosion resistance. By reducing the amount of carbon 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding nitrogen 0.11% (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly improved. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price/quality category!
DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) the durability of the surface of the blade is enhanced with a black matte nanocomposite coating, which exhibits the unique properties of natural diamonds, such as exceptional hardness and low friction, also corrosion resistance. It is one of the most resistant coatings to scratches and abrasion that are used in the industry, including the knife industry.
Blade - Spear Point type, coated with black DLC coating. Plain Plain blade, with a central grain for strength enhancement. The thickness of the blade and the high, flat grind give excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Blade is set on ceramic Ball bearings that support the work of the blade's opening mechanism, allowing you to efficiently unfold the folder with the release of the lock button and a light flick of the wrist. The whole is locked with a modern Button Lock.
Handle - grips made of lightweight and durable aluminum, a virtually indestructible metal, insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The milled pattern on the Handle, in addition to aesthetic impressions, also has a purely practical application improving grip security. The open-backed design reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. Pivot axis decorated with the company's logo. A single-position, right-side deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (with the tip of the blade up).
