Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel

The blade utilizes advanced Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, engineered by the renowned Swedish manufacturer Sandvik and highly regarded for its superior performance characteristics. Offering high hardness, this steel maintains outstanding corrosion resistance and edge retention. Through precise heat treatment, the steel attains a hardness of 55-62 HRC, ensuring an ideal balance of sharpness, durability, and wear resistance.

Straight-Back blade with Blackwash finish, jimping

Featuring a Straight-Back profile, the blade measures 97 mm in length with a thickness of 3.8 mm. A smooth cutting edge is created through a flat grind technique. Finished by the Blackwash method, the blade presents a matte, even texture that enhances camouflage and protects against light scratches during operation. The spine includes jimping (notching) at the thumb rest to provide greater tool control during use.

anti-slip G10 laminate handle, titanium clip

The handle features a construction of G10 laminate, made by layering fiberglass and bonding it with epoxy resin. Offering exceptional strength, resistance to moisture, and a lightweight profile, this material is well-suited for demanding conditions. Enhanced finger grooves provide superior grip and control, even when hands are wet or dirty. For convenient carrying, a springy titanium clip allows secure attachment to a belt, pocket, or gear loop.

Liner Lock, flipper and thumb hole

The blade deploys via a flipper, which, once the knife is open, functions as a compact cross guard to shield fingers from sliding forward, or with the use of the thumb hole. Ball bearings integrated into the main pivot ensure smooth deployment. In the open configuration, a Liner Lock provides secure blade locking.

14C28N feature
14C28N
14C28N is a martensitic "nitro" stainless steel developed by the Swedish company Sandvik (now Alleima). Its chemical composition has been optimized to achieve high hardness through nitrogen (0.11%) rather than carbon, which maintains corrosion resistance and increases edge durability. The carbon content of 0.62% contributes to good cutting properties, while chromium (14%) ensures high resistance to rust and oxidation. After proper heat treatment, the steel achieves a hardness of 55-62 HRC, which provides an optimal balance between sharpness, strength, and corrosion resistance. Thanks to its fine-grained structure and ease of sharpening, 14C28N is a popular choice for the production of kitchen, EDC, hunting, and tactical knives.
G10 feature
G10
G10 is a lightweight and extremely durable material, considered one of the best for knife production. It is created by pressure-pressing fiberglass with phenolic resin, which gives it high durability and resistance to mechanical damage. It is chemically inert, does not conduct electricity, and retains its properties at both low and high temperatures. In terms of parameters, it is similar to carbon fiber, but its production is much cheaper. G10 handles are manufactured by precision cutting and cutting, which increases the cost of processing but ensures a perfect fit and long knife life.
Blackwash feature
Blackwash
Blackwash is a finish that combines oxidation (graphite-black shade of steel) with the Stonewash technique. The blade is first coated with black and then treated in a drum with abrasive. This creates an aging effect - a dark background with lighter abrasions and micro-scratches. This gives the knife a raw, “used” look, masks scratches well, reduces light reflections, and works well in tactical knives. Thanks to its combination of practicality and aesthetics, Blackwash is popular in EDC, outdoor, and combat knives.

    This is not Bestech. This is a Beast! This knife is as slender as a snake, as fast as a snake, and as sharp as a snake's fangs. The carbon fiber scales look like snake skin. The handle fits perfectly in the hand and allows for precise operation. The slim blade has an almost full flat grind. And the steel reflects and splits the light like tiny crystals. The assisted opening is lightning fast. You just wish it had an axle-lock instead of a liner-lock, so you could click, click, click it both ways. But the implemented liner-lock is also fantastic. It works smoothly, and when closing the blade, there is a noticeable resistance point, probably so you have time to move your fingers out of the way. The knife arrived in a beautiful zippered pouch with pockets. In one pocket was the knife, and in the other a microfiber cloth. I think it would also be a good idea to include a few adhesive bandages with the pouch. In summary, I recommend it—it's beautiful. And menacing :)

    Interesting, unusual, somewhat futuristic design. The materials and mechanism are very good for this price. The knife is large but slim. It's comfortable to carry every day. I recommend it.
