Handle: Stainless liners support contoured canvas Micarta covers for a solid and comfortable grip and plenty of style. The covers are attached with stainless pins and the liners are engine turned or jeweled for a truly custom feel. A solid stainless steel back spring protects the blade when closed and delivers snappy slip joint action for safe use.

Bohler N690: N690 is a high quality stainless steel, considered an upgrade to 440C. It has higher hardness and wear resistance for better edge retention while sacrificing some toughness. Corrosion resistance is high, at or better than VG-10. Easy to sharpen, this is a well-balanced steel for daily carry and use.
