CPM 20CV - one of the best tool steels, American premium martensitic stainless steel. Produced by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy / Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) method. The CPM process creates a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. Designed to provide better wear resistance while maintaining corrosion resistance at the highest level. This super steel is comparable to Bohler's M390 steel or Carpenter's CTS-204P. According to some knife manufacturers, 20CV is the best of these three steels in terms of edge retention. It consists of 19.0% carbon (C), 20.0% chromium (Cr), 4.0% vanadium (V), 1.0% molybdenum (Mo) and 0.6% tungsten (W). The high percentage of chromium with a touch of molybdenum makes 20CV one of the best high-end corrosion-resistant steels.
Blade - Wharncliffe type, polished and then subjected to glazing. The small thickness of the blade combined with a high, flat grind (Flat Grind) gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings assist in opening the blade with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper) when opened acting as a gut or oblong hole in the wedge. Upper jumping, notched thumb rest on the back of the wedge for better control. The whole is locked with a modern Nested Frame Lock.
Handle - is thick pieces of polished titanium 6AL4V, contouring of the covers eliminates sharp edges. On both sides there is an inlay (insert) made of flame-dyed titanium. Only a few companies are able to make the Handle with such incredible accuracy! The grips are joined together using a titanium backspacer. A right-handed, single-position titanium deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up (blade up) position. As in other models, the pivot axis is decorated with a stylized manufacturer's logo.
Case - a zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo is included for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
