Crucible CPM 20CV – High-Wear-Resistant Steel
CPM 20CV is a powder steel stainless steel prized for its excellent edge retention and high resistance to abrasion. In the compact Shark Cub, it performs well for EDC tasks where a durable edge and minimal need for frequent resharpening are essential.
Slicer Shark, Flat, and Black DLC Coating
The Slicer Shark profile combines a functional tip with a cutting edge that performs well when cutting packaging, cardboard, and other common everyday materials. The flat grind ensures smooth cutting through materials, while the black DLC coating protects the blade’s surface and gives it a subdued appearance.

The olive-green G10 handle provides a secure grip and good durability for everyday use. Shark-Lock® secures the blade, and ball bearings ensure smooth pivot operation; the reversible deep-carry clip allows for carry on either the right or left side.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for CPM 20CV steel?
After use, it’s a good idea to clean and dry the blade, especially after contact with moisture or substances that leave residue. CPM 20CV has high corrosion resistance, but regular care helps maintain the edge and the appearance of the black DLC coating.
How do you sharpen CPM 20CV?
It’s best to use diamond or ceramic sharpening stones or a good sharpening guide system. Due to its high abrasion resistance, this steel may require more time and patience than simpler stainless steels.
What sharpening angle should be used?
The manufacturer does not specify a specific sharpening angle for this variant. The safest approach is to restore the factory edge geometry or adjust the angle to suit your own usage.
How does Shark-Lock® work?
Shark-Lock® is a locking mechanism controlled by a component located on the back of the handle, which stabilizes the blade when opened. This design allows you to operate the lock without placing your fingers in the path of the folding blade.
How can you carry the Shark Cub?
The model features a reversible stainless steel deep-carry clip. It allows for right- or left-side configuration, so you can adjust the carrying style to match your dominant hand.
