- Swordfish Titanium/Carbon Fiber, Pearlescent. An innovative knife from the young Remette Knives manufactory. OTF with an extendable blade made of Böhler M390 steel thanks to the force of gravity. Handle made of titanium with an smarta blade release system
Swordfish Titanium / Carbon Fiber, Pearlescent opening intuitive folding knife from the up-and-coming Remette Knives manufactory, a display of engineering in design. Gravity OTF (Out The Front) Blade extends from the front due to the force of gravity. Modeled on the design of the Luftwaffe gravity air knife, commonly known as the knife of German paratroopers. Intuitive extension / retraction of the blade with one hand (under the influence of gravity) and the best materials such as Böhler M390 blade steel and titanium handle, perfectly combined with the unmatched quality of the Remette brand !
M390 - a martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to the 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) with an admixture of 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), 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 - machine-ground Tanto type with one-sided sharpened edge. Finished by hand using the elegant Manual Fine Grinding Pearlescent Surface Effect + Manual Wire Drawing Effect method giving a stunning effect. The backbone extends the length of the cutting edge relative to the length of the slender blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. Thethickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. A very practical option is the ability to reposition the blade and adjust it for left-handed people. Just unscrew a few screws and rotate the blade 180 degrees in the guide. Mechanical locking by snapping the two grips on the top and bottom of the blade.
Handle - made on CNC milling machines from titanium, with three-dimensional texture. The chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges, and the perfectly matched Carbon Fiber composite inlay adds an exclusive touch and improves grip security. On the right side, an artful slide for advancing/retracting the blade. A single-position titanium (right) deep-carry clip allows the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket in tip-down position (blade tip down).
Additional accessories - a leather sheath for carrying and storing the knife.
