MKM Goccia Bronze Stonewashed Titanium Knife, Satin M390 by Jens Ansø (MKGC-TBR)

Goccia Bronze Stonewashed Titanium, Satin Finish When Danish knifemaker and knife designer Jens Ansø showed his custom model Neo, it became the dream 'perfect knife' for many knife lovers. In cooperation with MKM, a top-quality production version of this model called Goccia was created. Goccia means "drop" in Italian and is meant to symbolize the first water-powered hammers in the forges that started the knife industry in Italy. The name is also reflected in the concentric ellipses carefully milled into the handle facings, which even mesmerize with their changing surface textures.

M390 Microclean - the blade is made of the highest quality modern powder steel with a hardness of 58-60 HRC with extremely high resistance to abrasion and corrosion, so it requires minimal maintenance. Another advantage of the steel is resistance to "wire" formation during sharpening. Comparable steels are CTS-204P and Duratech 20CV. Manufactured in Austrian steelworks Böhler-Uddeholm.

Blade - satin drop point blade mounted on a ball bearing provides opening speed and smoothness much better than pad-based solutions. Flipper flipper which opens the knife has been slimmed so that it does not stick out above the line of the handle. After opening it creates a mini-guard preventing the hand from slipping on the blade. Thickness of blade provides high strength while high, flat grind guarantees excellent cutting properties. The generous belly of the blade extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the head converging towards a needle-sharp tip.

The handle - two plates of titanium gr. 5, Ti6AI4V, anodized in bronze color, perfectly milled on 3D numerical machine in elliptical circles. Here the mastery of Jens Anso's design is revealed, the handle is perfectly ergonomic, and the elliptical circles, in addition to their aesthetic function, also play a practical role by increasing the grip security. On the inside, in the milled facings there is a Liner Lock. In the back massive titanium backspacer with characteristic Jens Anso lanyard hole. Backspacer and decorative collar around the pivot in stonewashed titanium. Right-handed, one-position titanium deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up position.

Case - comes with an elegant pouch made of Cordura with the manufacturer's logo, with the possibility to trouser it to the belt.
