14C28N - Martensitic chromium stainless steel is the latest development in the range of knife steels produced by Sandvik's Swedish mills. An optimized chemical composition with a unique combination provides superior quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness and corrosion resistance. By reducing the amount of carbon 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding nitrogen 0.11% (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly improved. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price / quality category!

Blade - drop point type, finished with a bath of fine Stonewashed pebbles and then coated with a black coating. The light belly extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearings support the opening of the blade with a quick index-finger flipper (flipper) when opened acting as a stag. A section of the blade's back is covered with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest for easy control of the knife. The whole thing is locked with the proven and popular liner lock.

Handle - bolsters made of black multi-layer carbon fiber and G10 composite, practically indestructible plastics insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The rest of the Handle is a beautiful burl with a unique pattern. The open-backed design, so called without the typical backspacer, fastened together with steel spacer sleeves for easy cleaning. Simple, solid construction gives assurance of many years of use. Around the pivot a decorative, green-tinted ring. A single-position, right-handed titanium clip allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up position, with the tip of the blade upward.
