Chad Nell Custom Gent Satin AEB-L Evil Eye Timascus Clip Titanium Frame Lock Flipper

The Chad Nell Custom Gent is a clean and utilitarian design that is well adapted to dress and every day carry. This is a robust, titanium frame lock flipper that doesn't sacrifice function for style and has both in spades. This version has a hand rubbed satin finished, AEB-L stainless steel blade, milled and contoured titanium handles and Evil Eye pattern Timascus pocket clip, backspacer and pivot collar rings.

Brand new, direct from Chad Nell.

Blade: The clean, drop point profile blade is made from hand rubbed satin finished, AEB-L stainless steel with a beautifully crowned spine for that custom feel. The utilitarian profile is complemented by the top swedge and shallow hollow grind that offer excellent piercing and slicing performance respectively. The blade rides on a caged bearing pivot for fast, smooth flipper deployment with a well dialed in detent for decisive action.

Handle: The simple, spartan handle design is ergonomically designed and contoured for comfort in the hand. A few subtle adornments are offered for style: Timascus pivot collars, a scallop-chamfered hole and tapering milled groove with divots. The last two also offer indexing in the hand and added traction. The integral titanium frame lock is rock solid and smooth to operate and the the knife is completed with black Torx hardware, titanium lock bar stabilizer and Timascus backspacer.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, 3D machined Evil Eye Timascus pocket clip.

Includes "C. Nell Utah, USA" embroidered nylon zipper pouch and signed/dated Specs card from the maker.

Bohler AEB-L: Originally developed for razor blades and described as a stainless 52100 AEB-L takes a very fine edge, is easy to sharpen and is highly corrosion resistant. Edge retention is good with excellent stability (resistance to rolling and chipping) which allows for a thinner edge and better cutting performance. Sandvik 13C26 is a copy of AEB-L.
