CIVIVI Lazar Isham Black Hand Rubbed Damascus Copper Front Flipper C20013-DS1

Iconic custom designer Elijah Isham is back with another striking contemporary design in the Lazar front flipper from CIVIVI. Slim and compact for daily carry, the Lazar has a slender, slicing blade with Persian style and Isham's visually appealing and functional trademark handle design. This version comes with a black hand rubbed stainless San Mai Damascus steel blade, matching copper scales and black stainless steel liners.

Brand new, direct from CIVIVI.

Blade: Riding smooth on a caged ceramic bearing pivot the slim, flat ground stainless San Mai Damascus steel blade deploys with ease fast or slow via the front flipper which disappears into the handle when open. The flat grind provides superior slicing ability, while the slender profile lends itself to piercing and fine work. A subtle choil is integrated into the blade for added control and easier sharpening of the full edge. The black hand rubbed finish gives you the striking visual appeal of Damascus with a low-key look.

Handle: Stainless steel liners supporting black hand rubbed copper scales form the sweeping handle with deep chamfers for comfort. The handle design is ergonomic and secure, delivering a svelte package for carry, being under 1 1/8 inches wide while having a satisfying heft in the hand from the copper scales. A stainless steel liner lock is smooth, solid, and easy to operate for safe use, while a partial back spacer completes the semi-open construction.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up, stainless steel deep carry clip.

Chinese San Mai Damascus: Produced in multiple patterns, Damascus offers the performance of a modern steel with striking visual appeal from the pattern welded layers. The core of this blade is 9Cr18MoV stainless steel hardened to around 60 HRC for solid cutting performance.
