Ivan D. Braginets - a creator from Ukraine, built his first folding knife at the age of only 15.

Rike Knife - an independent brand founded by longtime knife enthusiast Richard Wu. With a background in mechanical design and manufacturing, he is constantly striving for excellence and perfection helped by his professional design team and his own independent factory. RikeKnife is an unconventional brand, grounded in original design, which has the courage to become an innovator and challenge the traditional solutions used by contemporary knife companies. It uses only the highest quality materials to produce knives of excellent quality for customers around the world. Enjoying a well-deserved reputation in the world of knives, the brand relies on high quality workmanship and an innovative approach to design. This was appreciated, among others, by the legendary American brand Microtech, which, for the first time in its history, commissioned its designed products to be made outside the US, precisely by the Chinese company Rikeknife. These include SOCOM Bravo and Anax folders and Kyroh Pen tactical pens .
M390 - a martensitic high-performance chromium steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to the 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 - drop point type, finished with elegant satin finish. The gently curved cutting edge converges towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The small thickness of the blade, combined with a high, flat grind, results in excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings support the opening of the blade with a fast front f lipper (index-finger front flipper). The entire blade is locked with the proven and popular frame lock with a steel inlay to prevent wiping of the lock face.
Handle - is a thick piece of titanium 6AL4V, the contouring of the covers eliminates sharp edges. On both sides there are inlays (inserts) made of Carbon Fiber composite. The open-backed design fixed with titanium spacer sleeves reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. The simplicity and robustness of the design give assurance of many years of use. Two-position clip (right/left), made of titanium, equipped with a smooth rollerball, thanks to which the knife easily slides into the pocket without damaging its edges, allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up). The pivot is decorated with a stylized knifemaker logo and, together with the screws, has been finished in blue.
Case - a zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo is included for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
