Maksim Tkachuk - graphic artist and industrial designer, one of the most recognized Ukrainian knifemakers. He uses his experience and skills to create functional and aesthetic knives. Maksim is guided by the principle of “less is more” in his work.

Kubey is one of the largest manufacturers of high-quality knives at a great price! The company's motto is “An Edge Above the Rest”. By using high-speed CNC machine tools, milling machines, laser cutting and custom hand finishing, the brand focuses on quality workmanship and an innovative approach to design.

CPM S90V - Martensitic stainless high-alloy tool steel with a hardness of 56-59 HRC with an addition of 9.0% vanadium (V) and 2.3% carbon (C). The high vanadium content promotes the formation of hard vanadium carbides that ensure strength and exceptional wear resistance, and also increases corrosion resistance. This unique steel is designed for the production of high-quality blades and knife blades. Produced by US Crucible Industries using particle metallurgy / Crucible Particle Metallurgy (CPM). The CPM process produces a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods.

Blade - Sheepfoot type. Finished with a scratch-concealing Sandblasted method, a process in which fine sand particles are ejected under pressure onto the blade to give a stylish and practical look. Long, strong cutting edge tapering to a needle-sharp point. The thickness of the blade ensures high durability, while the high, flat grind and wide blade guarantee excellent cutting properties. Ceramic ball bearings support the smooth operation of the blade opening mechanism, which can be opened with a flipper. When opened, the flipper forms a mini guard to prevent the hand from slipping onto the blade. On the spine of the blade, there is an upper jimping, a corrugated support for the thumb. The whole is locked with a modern Frame Lock with a steel inlay to prevent the lock face from wearing out.

Handle - profiled grips made of titanium 6AL4V. The whole is screwed to a solid backspacer, also made of titanium. The simple, solid construction ensures many years of use. The pivot axis is decorated with a titanium cap (Pivot Cap) in a contrasting color. The single position (right) titanium deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in a tip-up position (with the tip of the blade up). At the back of the backspacer there is a hidden place to thread a safety or decorative cord.
