Nitro-V – Stainless Steel for Regular Use
Nitro-V combines good corrosion resistance with easy sharpening and stable edge retention. A hardness of 59–61 HRC supports long-term use without compromising the steel’s practicality.
The Black Stonewashed finish gives the blade a dark, workhorse look and minimizes the visibility of minor wear marks.
Sheepsfoot and flat grind – geometry for controlled cutting
The Sheepsfoot blade works well for cutting cardboard, tape, cord, and packaging, where control and predictable edge guidance are essential.
The Flat grind facilitates a smooth entry of the blade into the material and works well with the Sheepsfoot utility profile.
Vortex Pattern Micarta and Clutch Lock
The handle made of Vortex Pattern Micarta features a distinctive texture that highlights the unique character of this variant. The material provides a comfortable grip and performs well during regular use.
The Clutch Lock stabilizes the blade when open, and the reversible tip-up clip allows you to choose which side of your pocket the knife sits on.
