Details

Working in collaboration with designer Faisal Yamin, Les Voorhies has executed the ergonomic Simplex flipper with an amazing attention to detail and superb fit and finish. The Simplex is crafted with tight tolerance for a seamless piece of function artwork in the form of a sleek cutting tool. This version comes with a satin finished CPM S35VN blade, hand rubbed satin titanium frame with polished edges and Timascus inlay, clip and pivot collars.

Brand new direct from maker.

Blade: The modified drop point blade rides smoothly on an IKBS bearing pivot and deploys fast via the large, integral flipper. CPM S35VN delivers a solid blend of performance characteristics and is executed in a beautifully satin finished hollow grind providing excellent slicing performance with a subtle top swedge tapering to a fine point.

Handle: The frame of this Simplex is made from aerospace grade titanium that has been given a fine horizontal satin finish on the flats with polished edges which frame beautiful Timascus pivot collars and inlay. The integral titanium frame lock has smooth operation and rock solid lockup. A blue anodized partial backspacer extends from the handle and is outfitted with a large lanyard hole.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up full Timascus pocket clip. Comes with black microfiber bag for storage.

CPM-S35VN: Designed to offer improved toughness over CPM S30V, S35VN substitutes niobium for vanadium delivering an increase in toughness of about 15-20% with no appreciable loss of wear resistance. Increased toughness means better resistance to edge chipping. Corrosion resistance is on par with S30V.
