Robust and functional Swedish stainless steel blade
The blade is made of Swedish 14C28N stainless steel hardened between 58-60 HRC. Due to the high purity of the alloy, 14C28N steel is distinguished by its high hardness, corrosion resistance and, importantly for the user, long retention of working sharpness. The aggressivewharncliffe profile has a uniform, stonewashed matte finish, which effectively masks any scratches or abrasions of the blade caused by use. The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 3 mm, which is a compromise between durability and functionality of the knife in everyday use.
One-handed comfort and unfolding thanks to SpeedSafe
The blade can be unfolded with one hand in two ways: with a milled flipper or with a two-sided peg, allowing you to choose the method according to your preferences. Both solutions are convenient for both right- and left-handed users, and also allow comfortable operation of the knife with gloves. The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe assist mechanism . When the flipper flipper is pressed, the assist mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second.
Dual locking system
A monolithicFrame-lock, considered one of the most robust locking mechanisms, effectively protects the blade from accidental folding. The main lock is supported by an additional Tip Safety Lock mechanism . A slide lock located at the top of the knife prevents accidental opening of the blade in the folded position .
Convertible pocket clip
Discreetly carrying the knife in your pocket is made possible by a high-set clip with mounting options on both sides of the handle. Next to the clip is a hole designed for attaching a decorative braided paracord, which are very popular among most knife owners.
Aluminum liners with a distinctive look
The knife's handle is formed by liners made of lightweight and durable 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, which are attached to steel liners, responsible for the rigidity and strength of the construction. An element that all lovers of classic knives will appreciate is the anodized coating is resistant to fading, scratching and abrasion, which guarantees the attractive appearance of the knife for a long time. The shape of the handle refers to the shape of the American flag.
