TeamBootLife Footnotes:
- AXIS® lock mechanism - 100% ambidextrous design, AXIS® gets its function from a small, hardened steel bar that rides forward & back in a slot machined in both steel liners. The bar extends to both sides of the knife, spans the liners & is positioned over the rear of the blade. It engages a ramped tang portion of the knife blade when it is opened. Two omega-styled springs, one on each liner, give the locking bar its inertia to engage the knife tang. As a result, the tang is wedged solidly between a sizable stop pin & the AXIS® bar itself.
- Grivory® handles feature an amorphous nylon copolymer w/ exceptional dimensional stability, 50% or greater glass fill
- Ambidextrous - can be used equally w/ either hand
- Made in the USA
- Drop-point blade - drops off the spine to the top, tip height is typically below the center line of the blade
- Manual open - must be opened 100%, from the closed position to the open position, by the user
- CPM-S30V is a premium steel created especially for knives, offering excellent corrosion resistance & superb edge qualities. The stainless steel is extremely well-balanced, making it one of the best choices for daily tasks.
- With machining at our roots, it's easy to appreciate what it takes to become "The Edge of Perfection™"
