Brand new, direct from manufacturer.

Blade: Following the pattern of a classic Zulu slip joint, this knife has a spear point blade with a modern front flipper tab for deployment. Made from premium, Bohler M390 stainless steel with a fine satin finish the blade has a nearly full flat grind with subtle top swedge. The grind and swedge offers excellent slicing and piercing performance for the modern user. It rides on a ceramic bearing pivot and hardened stainless steel washers for a reliably smooth deployment with a well dialed in ceramic detent for decisive deployment.

Handle: Sleek and modern in both form and function, the frame of the handle is formed by two thick titanium liners with integral milled bolsters. Handsome Marbled Carbon Fiber scales are supported by the liners and contoured for a comfortable, ergonomic grip that provides solid traction. The rear liner is cut into a reliable liner lock mechanism which is accessed via a cutout in the bolster and equipped with a hardened steel lock face for smooth, reliable operation for the life of the knife. Construction is rounded out with a titanium partial back spacer and satin Torx hardware.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, 3D machined titanium pocket clip.

Bohler M390: Bohler M390 has become an extremely popular choice for high-end user grade knives thanks to its extreme edge retention. M390 also has a good corrosion resistance, meaning most users can avoid problems by simply wiping off their blade after each use. Another great feature of this steel is its ability to resist burr formation during sharpening. Comparable steels are CTS-204P and Duratech 20CV.
