Orpheus Gray Titanium / Nebula Fat Carbon, Hand Rubbed Satin LE (Limited Edition).

A perfectly crafted folder with a solid titanium handle and a Blade made of excellent CPM 20CV steel. This remarkable knife will stand out among others!
CPM 20CV - one of the best tool steels, American premium martensitic stainless steel. Produced by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy / Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) method. The CPM process creates a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. Designed to provide better wear resistance while maintaining corrosion resistance at the highest level. This super steel is comparable to Bohler's M390 steel or Carpenter's CTS-204P. According to some knife manufacturers, 20CV is the best of these three steels in terms of edge retention. It consists of 1.9% carbon (C), 20.0% chromium (Cr), 4.0% vanadium (V), 1.0% molybdenum (Mo) and 0.6% tungsten (W). The high percentage of chromium with a touch of molybdenum makes 20CV one of the best high-end corrosion-resistant steels.
Blade - clip point type, finished by hand with an elegant Satin method. The elongated belly extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the blade converging 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. Ball bearing ceramic supports the opening of the blade with a quick flipper (index-finger flipper) when opened acting as a stag. The entire blade is locked with the proven and popular frame lock with a steel insert to prevent the lock face from rubbing off.
Nebula Carbon Fiber - a project by Fat Carbon, specializing in the production of epoxy-carbon composites (carbon fiber), used among others for knife handle scales! The unique pattern is inspired by the beauty and mystery of a distant galaxy and the nebula within it, specifically the Veil Nebula. A remnant of a supernova, it serves as the inspiration for this product, boasting an aesthetic appeal throughout its entire thickness. The Nebula pattern is consistent across the full thickness of the slab, allowing for breathtaking rendering on any knife handle.
Handle - made of solid 6AL4V titanium, the artful Fat Carbon Nebula inserts contrast beautifully with the titanium. Contouring of the covers eliminates sharp edges. The grips are joined together with a titanium backspacer. The textured surface improves grip confidence. The simplicity and robustness of the design give confidence in many years of use. The single-position clip (right), made of titanium, allows the knife to be carried in tip-up position. The backspacer has a place for threading a safety or decorative cord. The decorative finish of the pivot bolt is made of flame-dyed 6AL4V titanium.
Case - included zippered soft nylon case with manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
