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 Microbe Aluminum Foil G10 – a compact folder with 14C28N
Kizer Microbe Aluminum Foil G10, Satin 14C28N by Maksim Epifantsev (V2742A11) is a compact EDC folding knife featuring a Drop Point blade, an Aluminum Foil G10 handle, and a Kizer Button Liner Lock™. Its small size and weight of 65.20 g make this model well-suited for everyday carry in a pocket.
The satin-finished 14C28N steel blade, thumb-hole opening, and reversible tip-up clip create a practical configuration for working with cardboard, tape, packaging, plastic wrap, and lightweight utility materials.
14C28N – Stainless Steel for Everyday Carry (EDC)
14C28N is a stainless steel valued for its ease of sharpening, good corrosion resistance, and edge stability. A hardness of 58–59 HRC provides a practical balance between blade durability and easy maintenance.
The Satin finish gives the blade a classic, refined look and complements the metallic character of the handle well.
Drop Point and Flat Grind – Compact Geometry for Work
The Drop Point profile provides a stable tip and a versatile cutting edge. It works well for opening packages, cutting through cardboard, tape, and other lightweight materials.
Flat Grind allows the blade to glide smoothly through the material and helps reduce resistance during everyday cutting.
Aluminum Foil G10 – What Makes This Handle Stand Out?
Aluminum Foil G10 is a G10 laminate with embedded metallic aluminum flakes. The material combines the durability and texture of G10 with a decorative silver effect visible on the handle’s surface.
The silver finish complements the satin-finished blade well, and the Gray steel spacer sleeves emphasize the technical character of the compact design.
Kizer Button Liner Lock™ and Everyday Carry
The Kizer Button Liner Lock™ stabilizes the blade when open and allows for convenient release of the mechanism with a button when folding. The thumb hole allows you to quickly and manually prepare the knife for use.
The right/left steel tip-up clip allows you to adjust the carrying side of the folder to your preferences.
