12,45 €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.

Its compact form, full steel handle, and drop point blade make it a functional and aesthetically refined tool.

The knife is equipped with a liner lock mechanism, a double thumb stud, and a flipper, allowing for comfortable and safe one-handed operation of the blade.

3Cr13MoV is a martensitic chrome steel that has been enriched with molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V) to improve its performance. The typical chemical composition includes approximately 0.26-0.35% carbon (C), 12.5-14.5% chromium (Cr), 0.4-0.6% molybdenum (Mo), and 0.1-0.2% vanadium (V). The addition of chromium provides corrosion resistance, while molybdenum increases hardenability, high-temperature strength, and resistance to pitting corrosion. Vanadium contributes to increased hardness, wear resistance, and fine grain structure of the steel. 3Cr13MoV is used for the production of knives (often found in folding and hunting knives), medical tools and other applications where a good combination of corrosion resistance, hardness and strength is required. It is an improved version of 3Cr13 steel, offering better edge retention and overall durability.
Blade - made of 3Cr13MoV stainless steel, valued for its corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance. The drop point profile gives the blade versatility - it works well for precision tasks as well as simple everyday jobs. The three-dimensional 3D finish, reminiscent of Damascus steel, visually enriches the blade without affecting its performance. Opening is aided by a double-sided thumb stud or flipper, and a liner lock stabilizes the blade in the open position. The blade of the 18918 model combines simplicity of use with decorative aesthetics – ideal for everyday use and ready to be displayed in a collection.
Handle - made of steel grips, decorated with the same 3D pattern as on the blade. This design ensures high resistance to mechanical damage and moisture, and its symmetrical, minimalist appearance perfectly matches the blade. Despite the smooth surface, the proper balance and length of the handle ensure good grip control. A carrying clip mounted on one side allows for easy and discreet carrying of the knife in your pocket. The handle of this model is an option for those who appreciate monolithic, solid construction with distinctive details – durable, practical and aesthetic in everyday use.
