Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel
Crafted from advanced Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, a material engineered by the renowned Swedish manufacturer Sandvik, the blade is known for outstanding performance characteristics. Boasting high hardness, it also delivers impressive corrosion resistance and excellent edge retention. With proper heat treatment, the steel achieves a hardness of 53-59 HRC, ensuring an ideal combination of sharpness, durability, and resistance to wear.
Tanto profile blade with bead blast finish
Equipped with a Tanto blade profile, the knife features a blade length of 78 mm and a thickness of 2.9 mm. A smooth cutting edge is created by the flat grind. The blade surface receives a Bead Blast finish, resulting in a matte, consistent texture that enhances concealment and improves resistance to light abrasions during field use.
steel handle and clip
Steel handle with cutouts features a specially engineered design that ensures both a lightweight feel and a secure grip. Easy portability is provided by a steel clip (tip-up/r), which allows the knife to be securely fastened to a belt, the edge of a pocket, or other gear.
