M390 Microclean® - a martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its 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), hardened between 59-61 HRC, vacuum and cryogenic treatment and double tempering. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.

Blade - Drop Point style with a clearly marked belly, finished with an elegant satin finish. The thickness of the blade and the high, flat grind give excellent cutting properties, combined with extreme durability. Ball bearing system aids in the smooth opening of the blade, which can be opened with a quick flipper flipper. The flipper consists of a small lever (protrusion) that extends beyond the back of the Handle when the Blade is closed. In the open position, it acts as a gut, protecting the hand from slipping on the blade. We can also open the knife using the dual thumb studs in the wedge. Liner-Lock mechanism with patented SMART A.S.L.S. additional security.

Handle - made of exotic Bocote wood, with a 3D milled texture in the back for improved grip security. Grips were screwed to CNC-milled titanium backspacer, which provides the desired rigidity of such construction. The chamfering of the covers eliminates sharp edges for comfort, and the fore finger groove made on the front improves grip confidence. A right-handed, single-position deep titanium clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up (tip up) position.
