CPM S45VN - American martensitic high-alloy stainless steel with a hardness of 59-61 HRC, one of the best steels for blades. Designed to provide better strength compared to CPM S30V, while keeping corrosion resistance at the highest level. Manufactured 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. The chemical composition has been balanced so that it is composed of 0.5% niobium carbides (Nb) along with 3.0% vanadium (V) and 14.0% chromium (Cr) carbides. The improved strength of CPM S45VN also provides better resistance to edge chipping.
DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) durability of the blade surface is enhanced with a matte black nanocomposite coating, which exhibits unique properties such as exceptional hardness and low friction, as well as excellent corrosion protection. It is one of the most resistant coatings to scratches and abrasion that are used in the industry, including the knife industry.
The powerful Marauder-H Drop Point Blade, DLC Handle, Bronze HW/Clip, PVD Breaker, DLC, has been coated with a black DLC coating, hand laid concave grinds give excellent cutting properties combined with high strength. The striking Fuller-groove embossing increases durability, with the help of which the knife is opened. For increased insensitivity to contamination, phosphor bronze washer was used, making the pivot axis more resistant to field work. A powerful titanium frame lock bar secures the knife from folding, unfolded and secured the knife is as solid as an armored cash register.
The titanium Handle was, like the blade, coated with black DLC. A protruding section of the steel backspacer can be used as a glass breaker. On the back of the Handle there is a hole for interweaving a safety or decorative cord. The whole is completed by a massive clip, also made of titanium, of course.
The knife is delivered in a waterproof and dustproof - IP67 rating and shockproof (MIL-STD-810F) technical case from the American S3 Case Company, made of high-impact S433 resin - one of the most durable materials available in the world.
Included - cardboard box, S3 Case technical case and signed "Certificate of Creation and Authenticity".
