Design by Molletta, result of a collaboration with a well-known and respected designer with many years of experience. Michele Pensato (a.k.a. Molletta), is distinguished by a new approach to the use of materials and experiments in the application of heat treatment and the use of advanced software in the design of knives.
M390 Microclean® - head made of the highest quality modern powder steel with extremely high corrosion and abrasion resistance. High chromium steel with a doping of vanadium with a hardness of 60-62 HRC. Manufactured in Böhler-Uddeholm, Austria.
PVD + Stone Washed - durability of blade surface and cutting edge was increased by PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) method consisting in deposition of thin layers from gas phase and then subjected to Stone Washed finish masking minor scratches. Applied coating has a very high hardness, which significantly increases the resistance of the blade to abrasive wear.
Blade - Drop point with a pronounced belly of the blade provides excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. The Plain blade has a Flat Grind that perfectly showcases the matte black PVD + Stone Washed finish.
ReF - (Removable Flipper System) located on the underside of the head projection / flipper fin assisted by Double Crown makes it easy to open the blade with one hand. It consists of a small lever (projection) protruding beyond the back of the handle when the head is closed. In the open position the protrusion acts as a hilt, protecting the hand against slipping on the blade. In the folder it is possible to unscrew the Removable Flipper System lever (unscrew the flipper fin and then insert the second screw located in the box) and open the blade with both hands. This is important in countries where there is a ban on using knives with one hand opening blades in public places.
Double Crown - Double Crown ball bearing system is an evolution of the standard mechanism. It improves blade rotation, allows faster, even smoother blade opening and keeps the blade stable in a straight line.
Handle - Old Black facings of double milled solid titanium 6AI-4V, attached to a titanium spacer called backspacer / facings connector. Solid® titanium clip allows the knife to be carried in tip-up position. The clip is bolted to the titanium frame with a tungsten carbide screw/glass striker. There is a lanyard hole in the back of the linings, a hole for a cord.
