This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Novis Carbon Fiber/Titanium Bolster, Satin extremely elegant and functional E.D.C. folder with modern design and excellent finish. A design by knifemaker Fabrizio Silvestrelli. The fact that the Viper brand was able to produce this type of knife for such an incredibly low price is impressive.
Fabrizio Silvestrelli is a highly regarded Italian knifemaker and president of the Corporazione Italiana Coltellinai (CIC), the Italian knife guild. His designs are characterised by the rounded shapes of the liners, bolsters and handles. Designed by Fabrizio Silvestrelli, the knife exudes Italian style and solid construction.
M390 Microclean® - martensitic high-performance chrome 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 - Wharncliffe type with long cutting edge emphasized with Satin finish. Slight thickness of the blade 4mm in conjunction with Full Flat Grind gives cutting properties on the level of a razor while maintaining above average durability. A ball bearing system assists in the smooth opening of the blade which can be opened with the front flipper. The blade is locked with a proven and popular liner lock.
Handle - made of Carbon Fiber (carbon fiber compressed under pressure with synthetic resin) with titanium bolsters. Facings were screwed to the steel skeleton, thanks to which such construction is practically indestructible. At the end of the handle lanyard hole, a hole for a rope.
Case - refined leather pocket sheath.
