Paragon Warlock-X Tapered StarBurst Black Aluminum, Two-Tone CPM S35VN (WLOCX-TSB-B-D/G-B2T)
- Warlock-X Tapered StarBurst OD Green Aluminum, Cerakote Black, a large folding knife with an unusual gravity opening method. Aluminium grips, Blade made of proven S35VN steel. Made with pride by American craftsmen!
The Warlock-X Tapered StarBurst Black Aluminum, Two-Tone differs from traditional folding knives by using an innovative opening mechanism. The large, textured pivot serves as a dual locking button. By pressing both sides of the pivot at the same time, the Handle splits, exposing the Blade; through gravity and wrist movement, the Blade will slide out to the open position. This is a fun and innovative opening mechanism, effective and also provides a solid lock. The Warlock knows how to get down to business and will work as long as you want it to, but it's also capable of satisfying your thirst for fun. It's a knife you'll always be happy to have with you.
Tapered StarBurst - a series distinguished by the milling of the Handle in the form of rays spreading from the pivot to all sides, in the shape of a starburst. In addition, the tip of the knife tapers slightly (tapered) reducing the weight.
CPM S35VN - American martensitic high-alloy stainless steel with a hardness of 59-61 HRC, one of the best blade steels. Designed to provide better strength compared to CPM S30V, while keeping corrosion resistance at the highest level. Manufactured by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy/ Crucible® Particle Metallurgy(CPM) method. The CPM process creates a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. The chemical composition has been balanced so that it is composed of 0.5% niobium carbides (Nb) along with 3.0% vanadium (V) and 14.0% chromium (Cr) carbides. Replacing some of the niobium carbides with vanadium carbides makes the steel about 15-20% harder than S30V without sacrificing wear resistance, and it is also easier to machine and polish. The improved strength of CPM S35VN also provides better resistance to edge chipping.
Blade - Dagger type , sharpened on both sides (Double Edge), Finished with a striking Two Tone method, blades and bevels coated with black coating, the rest satin finish. The smooth Plain blade is derived with a flat grind for durability, excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. A single, centrally located grain further strengthens the blade. Smooth and smooth gravity opening, clamshell locking mechanism.
Clamshell - the locking mechanism is operated by buttons located in the pivot on both sides of the handle. When both buttons are pressed, the handle swings open allowing the blade to open by gravity. Once open, releasing the buttons causes both grips to slide down locking the blade securely. Closure is analogous, press the pivot, the facings swing apart, gravity fold the Blade inward, release the pivot, the grips come together securing the blade in the closed position.
Handle - grips made of solid aluminum, very light and durable material. Bolted together with a Clamshell locking mechanism. Thanks to this design, the knife is very light, while maintaining high strength. The right-handed, single-position titanium deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up (blade up) position. The grips feature a milled StarBurst texture, with rays extending from the pivot in each direction. In addition to the visual effect, this also improves grip confidence. Double finger guard double-sided hilt protects the hand from slipping on the blade.
