Brand new, direct from Boker Knives.

Blade: The Japanese VG10 stainless steel blade has a graceful Sheepsfoot blade with an elegant top swedge and razor-like hollow grind. The ridge of the grind allow for good purchase for opening the blade and keeps it clean, free of the traditional nail nick. A straight edge ends in a fine point delivering both piercing and slicing performance with a smooth, crowned spine for added style.

Handle: An ultra slim handle is facilitated by the innovative wire bracket back lock precluding the need for a top spring. This allows for more of the blade to rest in the handle when closed for a slimmer overall package. The handle has a lightweight titanium construction further enhanced with carbon fiber inlays for even more weight reduction.

The Genios does not include a pocket clip. Carries in the included leather slip cover.

Japanese VG10: VG-10 is a high-carbon stainless steel that takes a very good edge and holds it well. Popular with Japanese kitchen knife makers it is often hardened to 60-61 HRC A popular choice for small pocket knives thanks to good edge holding and stain resistance VG10 works well with a high polished, acute edge for optimal slicing performance.
