Dragon: HI-05 Engraved Front Flipper with Damascus Carbon Fiber - RWL-34 by Helgard & Ida Mostert

Описание: Husband and wife team Helgard and Ida Mostert create an amazing folder. Helgard is a protégé of renowned South African knifemaker Andre Thorburn. Ida brings her exceptional engraving and scrimshaw skills. Together, they can’t be beat!
The drop point blade is hand ground RWL-34 stainless steel. RWL-34 is a premium powder metallurgy cutlery steel manufactured by Damasteel in Söderfors, Sweden. Because it is manufactured from rapidly solidified powders, the microstructure of the steel is much more uniform. This gives the steel much higher strength and durability while maintaining very high wear resistance. The blade is hollow ground for an easy to maintain edge.
The blade is perfectly centered. Ceramic bearings ensure it has silky-smooth, drop shut action. The inobtrusive front flipper is tremendously easy to use while not catching on things in your pocket.
Handle scales are damascus carbon fiber, set on anodized titanium liners. The dramatic damascus carbon fiber emulates the appearance of damascus, but with the lightness of carbon fiber. Titanium bolsters are hand engraved with a dragon motif by Ida Mostert. The detailed hand engraving is beautifully done. A matching carbon fiber backspacer keeps the knife light, yet strong. This 3D machined titanium pocket clip with ceramic retention ball is mounted for right-side, tip-up carry.
Exceptional work throughout from a husband and wife team that is making a big impact.
