771,49 €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.
Luminary ZBP D/E Signature Black DLC Aluminum, Black DLC F/S is a full-size OTF (Out The Front) automatic knife from the prestigious Signature Series. Created through a collaboration between Microtech and SureFire. The construction is distinguished by the complete absence of any blade play when deployed - ensuring maximum rigidity and absolute confidence in the mechanism’s performance. The blade play free automatic is distinguished by a number of improvements such as; Crud Kutter™, Dual-Fuel Drive Train™, Zero Blade Play™. Operating in D/A (Double Action) mode, it allows the blade to be instantly extended and retracted with a flick of the thumb, guaranteeing unparalleled speed and reliability in situations requiring immediate response. The proprietary design by Tony Marfione, founder and owner of Microtech Knives, combines modern design with the highest quality workmanship to create a unique model valued by collectors and professional users alike.
Zero Blade Play™ - a redesigned blade locking system, getting rid of the affliction of most OTF knives, i.e. play on the blade when opened.
Dual-Fuel Drive Train™ - an upgraded knife opening/closing system, the mechanism works smoother and requires less force to open/close the knife.
Crud Kutter™ - a series of beveled notches under the opening slide, prevents the accumulation of dirt that could interfere with the opening mechanism.
M390MK - a collaboration between Microtech and Böhler engineers resulted in an exclusive version of M390 steel made only for Microtech. The carbon content has been increased and subjected to closer scrutiny thus improving the properties of M390 steel to provide better edge retention, corrosion resistance and polishing. Martensitic high-performance chromium steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its 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 19.0% (Cr) doped with 1.95% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened to 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
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.
Blade - machine ground D/E (Double Edge) Dagger type, sharpened on both sides, with the a upper edge F/S (Fully Serrated). Coated with a black DLC coating. The blade is brought out with a high Flat Grind for excellent cutting properties. As a result, while maintaining high strength, the knife has excellent piercing properties. The powerful mechanism of extending / retracting the blade with the help of a moled Thumb Slide, a stepped slide under the thumb requires for safety the application of a specific force to overcome the resistance of the spring. A tritium vial has been placed in the slider, glowing in the dark, for easier finding of the knife in the dark. The way of opening provides trouble-free opening for both right and left-handed people.
Handle - made with perfect precision in 3D technology on CNC milling machines, from DLC-coated hard aluminum 6061-T6. On the Handle deeply engraved Microtech logo, a claw of a bird of prey. The surface texture of the Handle makes the knife non-slip in the hand during use. There are notches (jimping) on the back and bottom of the handle for a more secure grip. Innovative boltless handle design. The slim profile and milled two-position (right/left) solid titanium deep-carry clip allow the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket, in tip-down (blade tip down) position. Equipped with a smooth rollerball, which allows the knife to slide easily into the pocket without damaging the edges of the pocket. The Handle is finished with a new version of glass breaker, a steel pyramid, into which a tungsten carbide ball has been pressed. On the back of the Handle there is a hole for interweaving a decorative cord.
