Subtle finger grooves give optimal comfort with a sweeping angle enhanced ergonomics and a distal taper that locks the hand in behind the integral flipper tab guard.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, satin stainless steel deep carry clip.
CPM-20CV: CPM 20CV is a highly wear-resistant, powder metallurgy stainless steel, analogous to Bohler M390 and CTS-204P, and offers some of the best corrosion resistance and wear resistance in combination with a relative ease of sharpening. These properties along with a working hardness in the low 60s HRC make 20CV a prime choice among custom and production makers.
