0,00 €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.
Kizer Trestle D Grey Aluminum / Black Norplex UltreX™ Micarta – slip joint with Nitro-V
Kizer Trestle D Grey Aluminum / Black Norplex UltreX™ Micarta, Stonewashed Nitro-V by Azo (V3760A1) is a lightweight Slip Joint folding knife with a Drop Point blade, a handle combining gray aluminum and black Micarta, and Nitro-V utility steel.
The knife opens via a Nail Nick, and its compact dimensions and weight of less than 50 g make it a practical choice for everyday carry. The stonewashed finish on the blade emphasizes the knife’s rugged, understated character.
Nitro-V – Stainless Steel for Everyday Use
Nitro-V is a stainless steel prized for its good corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening, and edge stability. A hardness of 60–61 HRC helps maintain sharpness during regular EDC tasks.
The Stonewashed finish gives the blade a well-worn look and helps minimize the visibility of minor wear marks.
Drop Point and Flat Grind
The Drop Point profile provides a versatile geometry for cutting cardboard, tape, packaging, and lightweight utility materials. The stable tip also makes it easier to make more precise cuts.
The Flat grind allows the blade to glide smoothly through the material and reduces resistance during everyday use.
Aluminum, Micarta, and Slip Joint Construction
The handle combines lightweight aluminum with textured Norplex UltreX™ Micarta. The gray-and-black color scheme gives the model a technical look, and the variety of materials ensures a comfortable, secure grip.
The Slip Joint mechanism uses a spring to hold the blade in the open position, but it is not a traditional lock. The design features a blade stop point above 90°, which helps ensure safer folding of the knife.
