Description: This EDC folder by Mastersmith Mike Vagnino has a tremendous sense of presence.
The blade is formed from Carpenter's CTS-XHP stainless steel. This US made steel is a new air hardening, high carbon, high chromium, corrosion resistant alloy. At Hrc 62-64, it will have exceptional edge holding! It features a non-reflective tumbled acid wash finish, which hides wear marks.
Large zirconium bolsters meet perfectly with marbled carbon fiber scales. Zirconium is a new material to the knifemaking world. It is a transitional metal that is primarily mined in South Africa and Australia. Zirconium is highly resistant to corrosion and scratching. Titanium liners and titanium posts keep the knife light and easy to keep clean. A titanium pocket clip is mounted for tip up, right handed carry.
The blade is perfectly centered with silky action -- as sooth as it gets.
