The Bestechman Cicada's Wing-TL BMK24-R-3 features a transparent blue resin handle paired with a Sheepsfoot blade coated in black PVD. This visual contrast is complemented by a lightweight design featuring a Top Liner Lock, Caged Ceramic Ball Bearings, and thumb studs on both sides, ensuring the knife retains the full functionality of a practical EDC folder.
With an overall length of 183.00 mm and a weight of 76.00 g, the knife remains slim and comfortable for everyday carry. The 80.00 mm-long blade is only 2.30 mm thick, which, combined with a flat grind, facilitates smooth cutting. The transparent blue resin also reveals part of the handle’s internal construction.
10Cr15CoMoV – Easy Maintenance and Good Corrosion Resistance
10Cr15CoMoV steel, hardened to 59–61 HRC, offers practical properties for regular use. It withstands contact with moisture well, sharpens relatively easily, and provides adequate edge retention for typical EDC tasks. This set of characteristics is well-suited to a lightweight design intended for frequent carry.
Sheepsfoot, Flat, and Black PVD Coating
The Sheepsfoot profile provides good control over the cutting line and reduces the aggressiveness of the tip, which is beneficial during precision work. The flat grind promotes efficient cutting, while the black PVD coating gives the blade a uniform, dark appearance and provides additional surface protection. The black blade contrasts sharply with the transparent blue handle material.
Clear Blue Resin and Top Liner Lock Mechanism
The handle is made of transparent blue resin, which gives the model a more technical and modern look. Black stainless steel spacer sleeves complement the open design. The Top Liner Lock is released with a push button, and Caged Ceramic Ball Bearings ensure smooth operation of the blade, which opens via thumb studs on both sides.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the properties of 10Cr15CoMoV steel?
It offers good corrosion resistance, is easy to sharpen, and provides sufficient edge retention for everyday use. This material is designed for ease of use and simple maintenance.
How do you sharpen a blade with a black PVD coating?
Only the cutting edge should be sharpened, avoiding contact between the abrasive and the blade’s flat surfaces. This helps preserve the appearance of the black PVD coating and minimizes accidental surface scratches.
How does the Top Liner Lock work?
A spring-loaded liner locks the blade in the open position, and a button is used to release it. This allows the mechanism to be operated without directly moving the liner with your finger.
What are the benefits of Caged Ceramic Ball Bearings?
They reduce friction in the blade’s pivot and ensure smooth opening. The cage keeps the ceramic balls in the correct position and facilitates stable operation of the mechanism.
How do you clean a transparent resin handle?
It’s best to use a soft cloth and mild cleaning agents. Avoid harsh solvents that could dull or damage the surface of the transparent material.
