Pressing the button automatically releases and opens the blade, while the Button Lock keeps it in the open position. The contoured 7075-T611 aluminum handle and textured inlays enhance grip control, and the right-side clip allows for tip-down carry.

Spear Point, Plain Edge, and Outbreak
The Spear Point profile features a symmetrical spine line and a centrally positioned tip, while maintaining a single, smooth Plain Edge. The thematic Outbreak finish covers both the blade and the Handle, giving the Signature Series version a distinctive, collectible look.
Outbreak Aluminum and Automatic Mechanism
The contoured handle is made of 7075-T611 aluminum and features textured inlays for improved grip. The button controls automatic opening and the Button Lock mechanism. A glass breaker, a lanyard hole, and a right-side clip round out the model’s functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for Böhler M390MK steel?
After use, clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. Despite its high corrosion resistance, do not leave moisture, salt, or corrosive substances on it. Before long-term storage, you can apply a thin layer of preservative.
How do you sharpen a Spear Point blade?
Sharpen the edge at a constant angle, guiding the tool along its factory-set profile. Near the centrally positioned tip, reduce the pressure to maintain the symmetry of the profile and avoid rounding off the tip.
How does the Button Lock mechanism work?
Pressing the button releases the spring-loaded mechanism and causes the blade to open automatically. The same component is responsible for unlocking the blade when folding the knife.
How do you maintain the automatic mechanism?
The areas around the pivot, button, and lock should be regularly cleaned of dust and small debris. After cleaning, you can apply a small amount of a light lubricant designed for automatic knives.
How to safely operate a side-fold knife?
Before pressing the button, make sure the blade’s opening path is clear and the knife is held securely. When folding the knife, keep your fingers out of the blade’s path.
