Cold Steel Mayhem AUS-10A Folding Knife
Featuring a folding design, this knife is equipped with a Clip-Point blade crafted from Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, which offers exceptional resistance to both mechanical damage and corrosion. The blade features a flat grind and a refined satiny finish. An ergonomically contoured handle, built upon a steel framework with screwed-on black G10 glass-epoxy composite scales, provides a secure grip. Deployment is ensured through a double-sided thumb stud, while an Atlas Lock reliably secures the blade in the open position. A durable spring clip enables convenient attachment to a belt or the edge of a pocket.
AUS-10A stainless steel
Forged from Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, the blade achieves a typical hardness of 58-61 HRC following heat treatment. Offering a blend of impressive resistance to corrosion and abrasion, this steel also stands out for its durable edge and ease of re-sharpening.
Clip-Point blade profile
The Clip-Point blade has a length of 159 mm and a thickness of 4 mm. Equipped with a flat grind, the blade delivers a smooth cutting edge. Its geometry is optimized for excellent cutting efficiency while also maintaining necessary strength for demanding applications. A satin finish provides the blade with an even, linear pattern, minimizes surface glare, and effectively masks minor scratches developed during use.
steel framework and G10 scales
An ergonomically contoured handle features a steel framework combined with scales crafted from black G10 glass-epoxy composite. Renowned for an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, this material also delivers superior resistance to environmental conditions. Integrated finger grooves and an anti-slip surface contribute to a secure grip. A hole at the handle's end permits attachment of a lanyard or securing cord.
Double-sided thumb stud, Atlas Lock
Deployment of the knife is achieved via a double-sided thumb stud for ambidextrous operation. Blade security is provided by an Atlas Lock, a double-sided sliding mechanism. In the open position, a stop pin engages, absorbing part of the force exerted on the blade and redirecting it to the handle, which helps to minimize strain on the locking system. This robust, load-distributing construction reduces friction between key components. To disengage the lock, simply slide the switch, enabling controlled and safe blade closure.
spring clip
A spring clip integrated into the handle guarantees everyday carry convenience, enabling secure attachment of the knife to a belt or the edge of a pocket. Designed for versatility, the clip is reversible and can be configured for both right- and left-handed operation.
