Microtech Exocet T/E Jedi Master OTF Knife Black Aluminum, Green M390 by Tony Marfione (158-1JM)

Exocet T/E Jedi Master Black Aluminum, Green is a compact OTF (Out The Front) automatic knife with “Money Clip” function. Operating in D/A mode, it features a hell of a fast blade extension mechanism. 100% made and assembled in the USA. Designed by Anthony Marfione, knifemaker and owner of Microtech Knives.

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

Blade - machine ground T/E (Tanto Edge) type, sharpened on one side. Covered with a green coating, characteristic of the Jedi Master series. The blade was derived with a high flat gr ind (Flat Grind), providing excellent cutting properties. As a result, while maintaining high strength, the knife has excellent piercing properties. The powerful mechanism of extending / retracting the blade with the help of a moled Thumb Slide, a stepped slide under the thumb requires for safety the application of a specific force to overcome the resistance of the spring. The opening method provides a seamless opening for both right and left-handed people. The length of less than 2” makes the knife legal in many countries with restrictions on carrying knives based precisely on blade length.

Handle - made with excellent precision in 3D technology on CNC milling machines, from Mil-Spec coated 6061-T6 aluminum. There are notches (jimping) on the back and bottom of the Handle for a more secure grip. Screws, slide and glass striker are bronze in color, in contrast to the black Handle. A two-position (right/left) solid deep-carry clip, decorated with the Jedi Council crest, allow the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket, in tip-down (blade tip down) position. The clip also bears the Microtech logo and production date. Thanks to the large width of the clip, it can act as a clip for carrying cash! Handle is finished with glass breaker, solid steel triangle, with a hole for interlacing decorative cord.
