Its long pull groove is perfectly placed for you to pull to a half stop before full deployment. Built from hard working 1095 USA high carbon steel. It will need cared for or allowed a natural patina to unique the piece. Sharpens nicely.

1095 High Carbon Tool Steel: Highly popular, simple carbon steel. Used extensively by both production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear due to low carbide content but very tough and easy to sharpen. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care.
