233,32 €KUR Santos Wood, PVD + Stone Washed a lightweight, handy and durable E.D.C. folder from Italian manufactory LionSteel. Winner of Blade magazine's prestigious Overall Knife of The Year award at the Blade Show.
Design by Molletta, designed by a well-known and respected Italian designer with many years of experience. Michele Pensato (a.k.a. Molletta), is distinguished by a new approach to the use of materials and experimentation in the application of heat treatment and the use of advanced software in knife design.
Sleipner - a high-alloy chrome-molybdenum-vanadium all-purpose tool steel blade with high wear and chipping resistance. It achieves a high hardness of 60-62 HRC. Manufactured in the Swedish Uddeholm steel mill.
Blade - Drop Point with clearly marked belly finished with Stonewash method, additionally coated with black PVD coating. The cutting edge is smooth (plain), the small thickness of the blade combined with a high, flat grind (Flat Grind) gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. The IKBS ball bearing system supports the smooth and smooth operation of the knife's opening mechanism. The entire blade is locked with the proven and popular liner lock.
ReF - (Removable Flipper System) located on the underside of the blade protrusion / flipper fin assisted by Double Crown makes it easy to open the blade with one hand. It consists of a small lever (protrusion) that extends beyond the back of the handle when the head is closed. In the open position, the protrusion acts as a stinger, protecting the hand from slipping on the blade. In the folder, it is possible to unscrew the Removable Flipper System lever (unscrew the flipper fin, then insert the second screw included in the box) and open the blade with both hands. This is important in countries where there is a ban on one-handed opening blade knives in public places.
IKBS - (ball bearing system) allows fast, smooth opening of the blade.
Handle - steel liners together with 3D-machined, exotic Santos wood liners are attached to a spacer made of solid titanium 6AI4V so-called backspacer / (liner connector. The right-hand compact wire clip (deep-pocket wire clip), allows you to carry the knife deep in your pocket (discreetly) in tip-up (tip-up) position. The exposed steel head with a lanyard hole, a hole for a rope, can, as a last resort, act as a hammer or a glass breaker.
