243,87 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Storm Black G10, Satin M390 unique E.D.C. folder aimed at discerning buyers, combines tactical style with the finest materials. Design by respected American knifemaker Rick Hinderer.

Steel
M390 Microclean® - a martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of "wire" during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of 20.0% (Cr) doped with 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened between 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
Blade
Drop point type with well marked belly emphasizes elegant Satin finish. Slight thickness of the blade in combination with high, flat grind gives cutting properties on the level of a razor. A ball bearing system assists in the smooth opening of the blade, which can be opened with the two-sided thumb studs or the very fast flipper flipper. Liner-Lock Mechanism. Notched upper jumping thumb rest on the back of the blade.
Handle
Pieces of solid titanium machined in 3D technology to which the black G10 facings were attached. The whole screwed to the CNC milled titanium backspacer, which means practically indestructible construction. H.M.B.S. system (Hinderer Modular Backspacer System) was used here, thanks to which we can change the backspacer to the one we need most at a given moment. Two-position, right/left titanium clip, allows you to carry the knife discreetly in tip-up position. Spine Jimping notches on the back of the liners increase comfort and grip. At the end of the handle, the backspacer features a lanyard hole, an oval hole for a cord.
