The Bestechman Cicada's Wing-TL BMK24-R-1 is a lightweight EDC folder with a green resin handle and a satin-finished Sheepsfoot blade. The model retains the series’ signature design, featuring a Top Liner Lock with a release button, ceramic ball bearings in the guide bushing, and thumb studs on both sides, combining simple operation with a lightweight build.
With an overall length of 183.00 mm and a weight of 76.00 g, the knife remains comfortable for everyday carry. The 80.00 mm long, 2.30 mm thick blade features a flat grind, making it ideal for efficiently cutting typical EDC materials. The green resin gives the handle a distinctive look while keeping the design light and slim.
10Cr15CoMoV – Practical Steel for Everyday Use
The blade is made of 10Cr15CoMoV steel, hardened to 59–61 HRC. This material offers good corrosion resistance, reasonable edge retention, and is relatively easy to sharpen, making it well-suited for a folding knife used regularly. Combined with the blade’s slim profile, it provides a functional balance between edge durability and cutting efficiency.
Sheepsfoot, flat grind, and satin finish
The Sheepsfoot profile provides a long, controlled cutting edge and a lowered tip that facilitates precise cuts. The flat grind reduces resistance during use, while the satin finish accentuates the blade’s lines and gives it a neutral, technical look. This combination works particularly well in a lightweight knife designed for everyday tasks.
Green Resin, Top Liner Lock, and Caged Ceramic Ball Bearings
The handle is made of green resin, which gives the model a more decorative look than classic G10 variants while maintaining a low weight. The open construction uses gray stainless steel spacer sleeves instead of a solid backspacer. The Top Liner Lock is released by a button, and the 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?
10Cr15CoMoV offers good corrosion resistance, decent edge retention, and is relatively easy to sharpen. It’s a practical choice for an EDC knife that will be used regularly and is easy to maintain on a daily basis.
How do you sharpen the Cicada’s Wing-TL?
Ceramic stones, water stones, or a sharpening guide system work well for touch-ups. With a hardness of 59–61 HRC, the steel does not require particularly aggressive abrasives and responds well to regular edge maintenance.
How does the Top Liner Lock work?
A spring-loaded liner locks the blade in place once it’s opened, while the button releases the mechanism. This allows you to close the knife without having to push the liner aside with your finger.
What are the benefits of Caged Ceramic Ball Bearings?
Ceramic balls housed in a cage reduce friction when the blade rotates around its axis. This facilitates smooth opening using the thumb studs and improves the mechanism’s reliability.
How do you care for a resin handle?
It’s best to clean the handle with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid strong solvents. Resin does not require waterproofing, but gentle cleaning helps preserve its appearance and surface shine.
