lionSTEEL T4B BLB is the most understated variant of the T4 family, combining Black Burlap Micarta with a CPM 3V blade finished in Old Black PVD Stonewashed. The compact design by Michele “Molletta” Pensato retains the rugged durability of the T-Series while offering more compact dimensions.
The distinctive weave of the Burlap Micarta provides a characteristic texture, while SOLID® technology allows the Handle to be machined as a single, solid piece. The knife comes with a Cordura + Kydex sheath featuring a MOLLE system, designed for practical field carry.
CPM 3V – Edge Damage Resistance
CPM 3V was developed with a focus on high impact resistance and resistance to chipping. In practice, it is well-suited for sturdy fixed-blade knives with a blade designed to handle heavier loads.
Drop Point – a versatile working profile
The Drop Point profile maintains a sufficiently strong tip and a functional edge curvature. The flat grind supports smooth cutting while preserving the robust character of the entire blade.
Old Black PVD Stonewashed
The dark Old Black PVD Stonewashed finish complements the black handle well and gives the knife a uniform, rugged look. The stonewashed effect minimizes the visual appearance of minor signs of wear.
Black Burlap Micarta
The handle is made of Black Burlap Micarta, whose pronounced weave sets it apart from standard canvas micarta. The material provides a distinct texture and complements the knife’s sturdy fixed-blade construction well.
SOLID® and the MOLLE system
The uniformly milled SOLID® handle gives the T4 its distinctive design, while the Cordura + Kydex sheath ensures protection during transport. The MOLLE system expands the options for attaching the knife to gear.
Why Choose the lionSTEEL T4B BLB?
This is the perfect choice for those who prefer a sleek, dark aesthetic and a knife with a distinctly utilitarian character. Black Burlap Micarta, CPM 3V, and Old Black PVD Stonewashed come together to form a cohesive setup for field work.
