The Elite Force EF165 is a tactical-style folding knife with a 440A locking blade and profiled G10 laminate cladding . An edc knife with a very good value for money!
Hard stainless steel
The full-size 85 mm blade is made of hard 440A stainless steel , which is highly resistant to damage and corrosion. The steel used has less retention (ability to maintain sharpness) which perfectly compensates for the ease and speed of sharpening. The blade has a matte black finish, referring to the style of tactical knives. The knife has a drop-point blade with a concave cut and a gentle curve. Thanks to this structure, the knife easily penetrates and provides good cutting parameters.
Strong lock
After unfolding, the blade is locked with the back-lock mechanism . After unfolding the blade, the lock located on the knife's crest collapses in the cutout in the rear part of the blade. The release of the locking mechanism requires pressing the strip visible in the cutout in the handle. The blade is unfolded with two hands using the enlarged nail cutout. This classic solution has been used for several decades, among others in pocket knives and can be worn legally in most EU countries.
Comfort of work
Light cladding made of G10 material is the element responsible for the comfort of using the knife . It is a glass-epoxy laminate that is characterized by low weight, high mechanical strength, resistance to water, temperature changes, and the action of many acids and solvents.
The profiled shape of the lining and fine gratings make the knife firmly and comfortably in the hand . The handle has a hole for attaching a decorative paracord braid, which is very popular among the majority of knife owners.
Thanks to the high-mounted clip, the knife can be discreetly carried in a trouser pocket (in the tip down position), on a belt or equipment.
