Karve Cold Steel AUS-10A Folding Knife - Black
Folding knife with a Clip-Point profile made of Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, which is highly resistant to mechanical damage and corrosion. The blade is coated with a black coating that reduces glare and provides additional protection against the elements. The ergonomically contoured handle consists of a steel framework and screw-on scales made of black G10 glass-epoxy composite. The blade is opened using a double-sided thumb stud, and when open, it is secured by an Atlas Lock. A spring-loaded clip is provided for carrying, allowing the knife to be clipped to a belt or the edge of a pocket.
AUS-10A stainless steel
The blade is made of Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, which typically reaches 58–61 HRC after hardening. The material combines good corrosion and wear resistance with edge retention and ease of resharpening.
blade with a Reverse Tanto profile
The blade, with a Reverse Tanto profile, is 95 mm long and 3.8 mm thick. The blade is coated with a black coating that reduces glare and provides additional protection against the elements.
G10 handle
The handle is made of G10 fiberglass-epoxy laminate, which withstands moisture and temperature fluctuations well and is resistant to typical wear and tear during use. The contoured design and non-slip texture make it easy to maintain a secure grip. The hole at the end of the handle allows you to thread a safety cord or lanyard through it.
Atlas Lock
The knife is opened using a double-sided thumb stud. The Atlas Lock blade lock is a slide-type lock that can be operated from either side. In the open position, the locking element interacts with a stop pin, which absorbs part of the forces acting on the blade and transfers them to the handle, thereby relieving stress on the locking mechanism itself. This force distribution reduces wear on the mating surfaces. The lock is released by sliding the slider, which facilitates controlled folding of the blade.
spring clip
Comfortable everyday carry is ensured by the spring-loaded clip on the handle, which allows you to clip the knife to your belt or the edge of a pocket. The clip is reversible and can be mounted in the tip-up position for both right- and left-handed users.
