Engineered for everyday carry (EDC), this folding knife is the work of American knifemaker Andrew Demko. Outfitted with a Drop-Point blade crafted from S35VN powder steel, it delivers exceptional resistance to corrosion. Featuring a smooth blade with a satin finish, the knife ensures both style and performance. The handle, black in color, is constructed from G10 laminate and sports a textured, anti-slip surface. Deployment is swift thanks to the double-sided thumb stud, while the Scorpion Lock mechanism guarantees safe handling.
Produced from CPM S35VN powder steel, the blade stands out for its exceptional corrosion resistance and outstanding edge retention. Subjected to heat treatment, the steel attains a hardness rating of 58-61 HRC, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and dependable performance during everyday tasks.
Equipped with a Drop-Point blade that has a length of 88.9 mm and a thickness of 3.8 mm. The design incorporates a smooth cutting edge paired with a high flat grind for optimal performance. A satin finish is applied, delivering a semi-matte appearance that boosts both visual appeal and resistance to scratches.
The hybrid handle utilizes a steel framework as its foundation, layered with G10 laminate scales and complemented by an anodized aluminum ferrule featuring a backspacer. Thanks to the G10 material, the handle achieves outstanding durability, resistance to moisture, and minimal weight. A non-slip, ergonomically shaped handle integrates a small single-sided cross guard, reliably preventing the user's hand from sliding onto the blade. Enhanced with finger grooves, the tool remains firmly under control even in wet or grimy conditions. Jimping, or serrated thumb rests, on the spine of the blade provide a secure place for the thumb, improving grip and precision during use.
Outfitted with a steel tip-up clip that is reversible for both left- and right-handed carry, the knife ensures accessibility for all users. There is also a lanyard hole at the base of the handle, allowing for secure attachment of a safety cord or key ring.
Featuring the innovative Scorpion Lock engineered by Andrew Demko, the knife ensures the blade is locked securely upon opening, maximizing user safety. The mechanism can be effortlessly disengaged using a practical lever situated at the rear of the handle, making one-handed closure simple and efficient. For rapid and intuitive deployment of the blade, a double-sided thumb stud is incorporated, enabling swift and easy access.
