Light, sharp... I'm even wondering what superlatives to use to describe in a few words this small work of art, the craftsmanship of the designer, and the materials used in its creation. Highly recommended.
Compact and lightweight folding EDC (Every Day Carry) knife featuring a Tanto blade profile. The blade is crafted from premium CPM-M4 tool steel, renowned for its exceptional wear resistance. The blade is heat-treated to a hardness of 62-64 HRC and finished with a ceramic Cerakote coating for enhanced protection against corrosion.
Blade deployment is facilitated with a dual-sided thumb stud, enabling ambidextrous one-handed opening. The knife utilizes a highly robust Axis Lock mechanism, designed to withstand heavy loads and provide secure locking, preventing accidental closure or opening during transport.
Ergonomically contoured handle scales are constructed from anodized aircraft-grade aluminum 6061-T6. A Lanyard Hole is integrated at the handle's end for attaching a safety strap, lanyard, or cord. Additional features include a glass breaker and a versatile, two-position steel clip for tip-up carry, suitable for both right and left-handed users.

Tactical Bugout. Excellent CPM-M4 steel. The lock is strong, reliable, and provides a lot of fun to use. The handle has a very good texture, ensuring a good grip even with a wet hand. I recommend it.
