587,31 €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.
Emperor Pro Series Black G10, Tumbled is a design by Greg Medford - a creator considered one of the most uncompromising manufacturers of tactical knives in the US. The Pro Series line reflects his philosophy - rugged, minimalist and functional tools, designed for operations in extreme conditions. The distinctive solid construction and handcrafted finish are the features that define this model as a highly specialized field tool. Blade is made of CPM 3V steel, renowned for its resistance to cracking and extreme side loads. The Tumbled finish surface enhances abrasion resistance and gives the blade a rugged, tactical look. The modified tanto 's geometry combines penetrating ability with cutting control, and the ridged (jimping) frets improve finger grip for precision work. Handle grips are equipped with flat G10 grips , bolted to afull tang), which increases the resistance of the entire construction. Ergonomic profiling improves control during intensive use, including with gloves. The back features a glass nailer and a cord hole, allowing you to personalize or secure the tool. A molded Kydex sheath with a clip compatible with MOLLE systems is included, allowing the knife to be carried securely and comfortably vertically or horizontally.

CPM 3V - a wear-resistant tool steel with high hardness. Manufactured by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy / Crucible Particle Metallurgy(CPM) method. The CPM process creates a highly homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. Designed to provide maximum fracture and chipping resistance in high wear resistance steels. It offers impact resistance greater than A2, D2, Cru-Wear or CPM M4 , approaching the levels provided by S7 and other impact-resistant grades. CPM 3V is hardened to 61-63 HRC for applications where chronic cracking and chipping is found in other tool steels, but where the abrasive properties of high-alloy steel are required.
Blade - a solid, modified tanto profile provides high damage resistance and excellent penetration. Made of CPM 3V steel, it offers exceptional resistance to fracture and transverse loads. The surface has been finished using the Tumbled method , which increases abrasion resistance and hides traces of use. Additional milling (jimping) on the back allows for a secure thumb rest and precise maneuvering of the blade. A central recess on the plane of the blade improves balance and functionality for dynamic cuts.
Handle grips - G10, screw-fastened, provide durability and stability of the design under heavy loads. Full-size shank (full tang) strengthens mechanical resistance and transmits force directly to the blade. The pronounced finger molding aids control, while the glass striker and cord/paracord hole increase the knife's functionality in rescue or military applications. As a whole, it is a finely crafted unit for special tasks.
