The Kubey Calyce KU901U is a variant of the Calyce model featuring a denim-colored G10 handle and a blade made of Sandvik 14C28N steel. The liner lock, ceramic ball bearings, flipper, and thumb studs on both sides create a practical design for everyday use.
The 83.00 mm blade features a Drop Point profile, a flat grind, and a matte bead-blasted finish. It opens manually using the flipper or thumb studs.
Sandvik 14C28N and Vacuum-Cryogenic Hardening
The blade is made of Sandvik 14C28N steel, hardened to 60–62 HRC. Vacuum hardening combined with cryogenic treatment promotes high hardness, wear resistance, and stable steel performance during regular use.
Drop Point, Flat Grind, and Bead Blasted
The Drop Point profile provides versatile performance and good tip control. The flat grind supports efficient cutting, while the bead-blasted finish gives the blade a matte, technical look.
Denim G10, Liner Lock, and Ceramic Bearings
The handle is made of denim-colored G10. The design is complemented by gray stainless steel spacers and sandblasted steel hardware, which creates a cohesive look with the blade’s light finish.
Ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth blade operation, while the Liner Lock stabilizes the blade when fully open. The clip can be mounted on the right or left side in a tip-up configuration.
