CPM MagnaCut - powder stainless steel manufactured using the Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) process hardened to 60.5-62.5 HRC. The high content of vanadium 4.0% (V), molybdenum 2.0% (Mo) and niobium 2.0% (Nb) guarantees accuracy and purity unmatched by more “conventional” steels. Designed and developed specifically for blade production by Larrin Thomas, it meets all the requirements of knife enthusiasts. With CPM MagnaCut succeeded in creating a steel that combines the unique properties of knife steels like no other. The result is a blade material that offers a remarkable balance of wear resistance, strength and corrosion resistance. There is no other steel on the world market today that offers a comparable combination of superior properties. This unique steel is produced at Crucible® Industries' U.S. steel mills.
DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) surface durability of the blade is enhanced with a matte black nanocomposite coating, which exhibits unique properties such as exceptional hardness and low friction, as well as excellent corrosion protection. It is one of the most resistant coatings to scratches and abrasion that are used in the industry, including the knife industry.
Blade - wide, Bowie type, coated with black DLC coating. The expansive belly extends the length of the cutting edge relative to the length of the blade converging toward the needle-sharp tip. The solid thickness of the blade combined with the high flat grind (Flat Grind) gives excellent cutting properties combined with high durability. The knife is opened with a button on the left side of the handle. To maintain full control of the blade, an upper jimping, notched thumb rest is made on the back of the blade. The whole is locked with the well-known and proven Button Lock.
Handle - precisely made on CNC milling machines from 6061-T6 aluminum with a perfectly matched inlay of 3M sandpaper-like plastic, so the knife does not slip in the hand during use. There are notches (jimping) on the edges of the Handle to improve grip. The pivot axis decorated with a designer screw. Milled, two-position (right/left) titanium deep-carry clip allows to carry the knife in tip-up position. Above the clip a lanyard hole, a hole for threading a safety cable.
