Bestech Duci Dark Gray Titanium Folding Knife, Dark Bead-Blasted Stonewashed CPM 20CV by Ostap Hel (BT2605B)

The Bestech Duci BT2605B is a compact EDC folder designed by Ostap Hel, combining a titanium frame, Crucible CPM 20CV steel, and a distinctive detachable ring mounted at the rear of the handle. The model maintains a small, lightweight form, and thanks to its flipper, Frame Lock, and ceramic bearings, it offers modern mechanics typical of the premium segment.

The Duci has an overall length of 162.00 mm, a blade length of 50.00 mm, and a weight of 54.00 g. The titanium ring can be quickly detached using a separate release button, allowing you to change how you use the knife without tools. The BT2605B version features a dark, subdued “Dark Bead Blast Stonewashed” finish.

Crucible CPM 20CV – High Wear Resistance

The blade is made of Crucible CPM 20CV steel, hardened to 61–62 HRC. This steel offers high abrasion resistance, excellent edge retention, and high corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for a compact EDC folder. The blade’s 3.20 mm thickness ensures adequate rigidity despite its very short, 50-millimeter geometry.

Modified profile, flat grind, and Dark Bead Blast Stonewashed

The blade features a modified geometry combining elements of the Drop Point and Spear Point styles. The flat grind promotes efficient cutting, while the Dark Bead Blast Stonewashed finish gives the surface a deep, dark character and helps minimize the visibility of minor signs of wear. This consistent finish also extends to the titanium handle components.

Titanium, Frame Lock, and Detachable Ring

The handle is made of titanium and finished in a Dark Bead Blast Stonewashed style. The Frame Lock provides a simple and rigid construction, while ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth operation of the flipper-opening blade. The titanium ring can be detached using a release button, allowing you to quickly change the knife’s configuration without additional tools.
