Aaron Frederick 3PS Satin CPM-154 Damascus Bolster Carbon Fiber Fixed Blade Knife 4685

The Aaron Frederick 3PS is a functional and stylish custom fixed blade with appeal for users and collectors alike. This piece has a hand rubbed satin CPM-154 blade, Chad Nichols stainless Damascus bolsters and carbon fiber handle scales.

Brand new directly from Aaron Frederick.

Blade: Built from CPM-154 stainless steel, the full tang blade has a drop point profile featuring a slicing hollow grind and tip swedge. Hand rubbed horizontal satin finish offers a premium custom look to this unique piece along with the crowned and polished spine.

Handle: Subtly contoured carbon fiber handle scales ride proud to dovetailed Chad Nichols stainless Damascus bolsters, a feature prevalent on the knives of John W. Smith, Aaron's father-in-law. The bolsters contrast nicely with the dark, rich carbon fiber to deliver striking character and balance to this piece. Simple and ergonomic, the handle has subtle grooves for a secure and versatile grip.

Sheath: Carries via a brown leather belt sheath.

CPM-154: A particle metallurgy (PM) version of Crucible 154CM that benefits from the refinement in the PM process. A great all-around blade steel, CPM-154 has D2 level edge retention, AEB-L level corrosion resistance and comparable toughness to other PM stainless steels with ease of sharpening/finishing.
