Details

The Small Inkosi, which means Chief in Zulu, is the latest advancement in knife making technology from Chris Reeve Knives. This model lives up to that name with several improvements over past models made during the last 30 years of Chris Reeve production. This version comes with a stonewashed, S35VN Insingo blade and Black Micarta Handle Inlays and is constructed for left-handed users.

Brand new, direct from Chris Reeve Knives, USA.

Blade: Made from stonewashed CPM-S35VN the 2.75" sheepsfoot-style Insingo blade is strengthened with CRK's Large Hollow Grind technology with dual titanium thumb lugs standard. The new grind is half-way between a flat grind and their standard hollow grind gaining strength and retaining the proven sharpening longevity and slicing performance of the hollow grind. It also implements a strengthened pivot with a larger stop pin and over sized twin phosphor bronze washers with larger grease pockets (less surface area friction). The washer diameter is wider than the blade ensuring zero sideways play.

Handle: A left-handed full titanium frame has ergonomic finger grooves and Black Canvas Micarta inlays for a pleasurable gripping experience. Ceramic ball end lock technology provides a lifetime of consistent lockup while changes to the pocket clip eliminate pressure on the lock bar.

Includes a microfiber cloth, small tube fluorinated grease, LocTite, Allen keys and information packet.

CPM S35VN: was designed to offer improved toughness over CPM S30V. It is also easier to machine and polish than CPM S30V and the adjusted chemistry makes CPM S35VN about 15-20% tougher than CPM S30V without any loss of wear resistance. CPM S35VN’s improved toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping.
