Bestech Strelit Blue Stonewashed Titanium, Damascus by Ostap Hel Knife (BT2103I)

Strelit Blue Titanium, Damascus extraordinary push dagger folder for discerning buyers, the result of cooperation between Polish designer Ostap Hel and Bestech Knives company. Ergonomic handle, extraordinary blade steel!!!

Ostap Hel - a talented Polish knifemaker and designer. His designs are based on the fundamentals of geometry, smooth transitions and the concept of "golden proportion". He is not afraid to experiment with new shapes and ideas to suit the unique style and production capabilities of the company he designs for.

Damascus - Damascus stainless steel blade with a unique design. A blade consisting of two different types of steel, forged and put together in different ways getting this amazing pattern. The steel is characterized by high hardness in the range of 58-60 HRC.

Blade - Hawkbill type. The concave cutting edge converges towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings support the opening of the blade with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper). The entire blade is locked with the tried-and-true and popular frame lock with a steel insert to prevent the lock face from rubbing off. When opened, the constriction just behind the blade allows you to comfortably grip the knife with a clenched hand, in the push-dagger position. The blade then protrudes from between your fingers like a predatory claw!

Handle - is two pieces of solid titanium 6AL4V with striking Marble Carbon Fiber inserts. The chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges for comfort, and the fore finger groove improves grip security. Open-backed design attached with spacer sleeves reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. A single-position, right-handed titanium clip allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up position, with the tip of the blade upward.

Case - the knife is packed in a zippered nylon soft pouch with the brand's logo for safe carrying and storage of the folder.
