Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for AUS-8 steel?
The blade should be cleaned and thoroughly dried after use. For long-term storage, a thin layer of preservative can be applied.
How do I sharpen a Drop Point blade?
Maintain a consistent angle and follow the curve of the edge. Near the tip, it’s best to apply less pressure to preserve its geometry.
How do I care for the “Woven Bones” engraving?
Clean the blade with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use polishing compounds or harsh abrasives, as these could alter the appearance of the engraving and the PVD coating.
How does the Assisted Opening mechanism work?
Pressing the flipper initiates the blade’s movement, and the Assisted Opening mechanism helps it open further. Once extended, the blade is secured by the Liner Lock.
How does the Quick-Release clip work?
The clip can be moved to the right or left side of the Handle while maintaining the tip-down position. A handcuff key (not included) is used to make the change. After changing the configuration, check that the clip is securely fastened.
