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.
M12M Black G10, Satin is a robust full tang outdoor knife designed by the Polish manufacturer ZaPas Knives. The blade is made of 1.4116S stainless steel, enriched with additives to increase resistance to corrosion and stress. The trailing point profile ensures excellent cutting properties and enables precise blade guidance in demanding tasks. The handle is made of G10 composite - a glass-epoxy laminate resistant to moisture, extreme temperatures and impact. The ergonomic shape and delicate surface texture allow for a secure grip even in difficult conditions. Thanks to its compact design and optimally balanced blade, the tool is perfect for outdoor work, guaranteeing precision and reliability with every cut.
1.4116S - molybdenum-vanadium high-carbon, martensitic stainless steel, highly resistant to corrosion and wear. It is used for the production of knives, high-quality cutlery and surgical instruments. Thanks to the addition of 0.1% nitrogen (N), it can be hardened to a higher degree than the standard 1.4116, up to a hardness of 59-61 HRC. The chemical composition of the steel is enriched with an admixture of 15.0% chromium (Cr), 0.80% molybdenum (Mo), 0.20% vanadium (V). Equivalent to Sandvik 14C28N steel.
Blade - with a Trailing Point profile, with a long cutting edge, ideal for all jobs. The blade has an elegant satin finish and a high flat grind, which gives it a perfect cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. The low-reaching blade line protects the hand from sliding onto the blade.
Handle - covered with durable G10 composite grips, a virtually indestructible material that is insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The ergonomically shaped handle provides a secure grip. The symmetrical design of the handle allows the knife to be held in either hand, especially for users who prefer a reverse grip.
Sheath - extendable, protecting the blade and part of the handle, made of Kydex plastic. Belt attachment allows the knife to be carried in a vertical position. Set of holes on the edge of the sheath allows screwing on a Tek-Lok mount (optional, not included)
