37,30 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.

14C28N - martensitic chromium stainless steel is the latest achievement in the range of knife steels produced by the Swedish steelworks Sandvik. Its optimized chemical composition, featuring a unique combination of elements, ensures the highest quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness, and corrosion resistance. By reducing the carbon content to 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content to 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding nitrogen at 0.11% (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly enhanced. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price/quality category!
Vacuum & Cryogenic - 14C28N steel has undergone a specialized heat treatment process involving two key stages. Vacuum Heat Treatment - the steel is heated in a vacuum environment, which minimizes oxidation and ensures more uniform metal properties. This process increases the steel’s strength and structural integrity. Cryogenic Treatment: After heating, the steel is rapidly cooled to extremely low temperatures, often below -100°C (-148°F). This transformation converts residual austenite into martensite, significantly increasing hardness, wear resistance, and overall durability. Thanks to these advanced processes, 14C28N steel delivers exceptional performance, offering both razor-sharp edge retention and remarkable blade durability.
Crossbar Lock - a crossbar that moves horizontally within longitudinal slots in the steel side plates of the Handle frame. When the knife is opened, the locking bar engages from above with the rear portion of the blade, preventing it from moving backward. This bar is held in place by two springs. Unlocking occurs by pulling the locking bar backward; its ends are accessible through notches in the handle grips. In the closed position, the bar presses against a cam surface at the rear of the blade, preventing it from opening on its own. The advantages of the Crossbar Lock include resistance to debris, practical insensitivity to dynamic loads, ease of operation with both the right and left hand, and smooth operation.
Blade - Clip Point type, finished with the Stonewashed method, which masks scratches and prevents glare. The long cutting edge, relative to the blade length, tapers toward the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The blade thickness ensures high strength, while the high, flat grind provides excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth and seamless operation of the knife’s opening mechanism. A double-sided thumb stud on the blade allows for quick and effortless opening by both right- and left-handed users. On the blade spine, upper jimping provides a textured thumb rest. A small choil facilitates sharpening. The entire blade is secured by an intuitive Crossbar Lock.
Handle - consists of two pieces of G10 composite, a material that is extremely mechanically durable and virtually completely resistant to weather conditions and chemicals, textured to improve grip, and screwed to the knife’s steel frame. The beveled edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges for comfort and improve grip. A series of holes in the handle adds visual lightness and reduces the knife’s weight. A solid backspacer provides the desired rigidity and durability of the design. The simple, reliable construction ensures years of use. A deep fore finger groove improves grip. The pivot is adorned with a stylized Kubey Knife logo. The two-position (right/left) deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in the tip-up position (blade tip facing up).
