The D/A OTF mechanism allows the blade to be automatically extended and retracted with a single slider. The Crud Kutter™ and Dual-Fuel Drive Train™ systems ensure reliable operation, while Zero Blade Play minimizes movement of the extended blade. A titanium clip with a ceramic ball, steel Torx screws, and an integrated glass breaker round out the model’s features.
Böhler M390MK – abrasion and corrosion resistance
The blade is made of Böhler M390MK steel with a hardness of 61–62 HRC. The material is characterized by high wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, and long-lasting sharpness, making it well-suited for regular use.
S/E Interceptor, Flat, and Stonewashed
The S/E Interceptor profile features an aggressively contoured tip and a distinctive spine line. The Flat grind promotes smooth cutting, while the Stonewashed finish gives the blade a matte appearance and minimizes the visibility of minor wear marks.
Black Topographic Deep Engraved and bead-blasted hardware
The aluminum body features a deeply engraved topographic pattern that enhances grip control and emphasizes the knife’s technical design. The clip, hardware components, and punch tip have been bead-blasted, allowing them to harmonize with the Stonewashed blade’s utilitarian appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for and sharpen Böhler M390MK steel?
After use, clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. For sharpening, it is best to use diamond stones, CBN systems, or a precision guide system.
How does the D/A OTF mechanism work?
The D/A OTF mechanism automatically extends and retracts the blade using a single slide. Pushing the slide forward opens the knife, and pulling it backward retracts the blade into the handle.
What are the advantages of the Stonewashed finish?
Stonewashed gives the blade a matte, irregular surface that helps minimize the visibility of fine scratches and marks that occur during regular use.
What is a bead-blasted finish?
Bead blasting is a matte finish applied to the clip, screws, and hammer components. It reduces shine and visually complements the functional character of the Stonewashed blade.
What does the Zero Blade Play system offer?
The Zero Blade Play system limits the movement of the extended blade, increasing its stability during controlled cuts.
