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.
Golia Evolution Black Canvas Micarta, Dark Stonewashed design by Tommaso Rumici. Forged from a single piece of steel, this knife features a full tang construction with a massive razor-sharp blade for tremendous cutting power. Versatile and perfectly balanced, aimed at bushcraft, survival and hunting enthusiasts. It combines tradition, utility and modern construction technologies for which the Viper brand is famous. A knife that will serve you for years!
D2 - high-carbon, high-chromium high-speed tool steel heat-treated to 59-60 HRC. With a high chromium content of 13.0% (Cr), it offers greater corrosion resistance than most high-carbon steels. Combines strength, excellent edge holding and easy sharpening. Features high wear resistance due to high carbide content in the microstructure.
Blade - Drop Point type coated with DSW (Dark Stone Washed) matte finish. The ideal cutting edge along its entire length provides exceptional cutting performance with full force, transferring power to the blade stab, guarantees better point strength. The solid blade combined with a high, flat grind (Flat Grind) gives almost razor-level cutting properties combined with extreme durability. A low descending guard prevents fingers from slipping on the blade while working. A notched section of the blade's back, the spine jimping ramp positions the thumb, giving solid support, making it easier to operate the knife. The cutting edge starts with a small notch which makes sharpening superbly easy.
The handle - made of green Canvas Micarta laminate (pressure-pressed canvas with synthetic resin), screwed directly to the steel, provides a virtually indestructible construction. The rounded shape of the covers eliminates sharp edges, which have been heavily textured to improve grip. The unique ergonomics of the handle allows the knife to be held both ways, especially for users who appreciate an inverted grip. On the back of the handle there is a skull crusher and a lanyard hole, a hole for attaching a cord.
Sheath - with additional pocket for accessories: sharpener or flint. Made of water-resistant Cordura®. The snap-fastened holster well protects the knife from falling out. Allows attachment under the straps of the M.O.L.L.E. (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) system, or on the belt. The lower part of the sheath with a DuraFlex buckle-type thigh band with rubber reinforcement prevents the sheath from moving on the thigh.
