Description: Brian Tighe produces unique, functional and visually appealing knives of the highest quality. His blades are the product of 25 years of experience in metallurgy, artistry and tactical expertise.
This Tighe Coon features a 3-3/4 inch blade made from RWL-34 powdered metallurgical stainless steel. RWL-34 is a premium powder metallurgy steel manufactured by ERASTEEL in Söderfors, Sweden. Because it is made from rapidly solidified powders, the microstructure of the steel is much more uniform. This gives the steel much higher strength and resistance to cracks and chips. By using a mirror finish in the grinds and satin finishing the flats, Brian emphasized his clean grinds.
The differentially finished handle is nicely contoured to fit perfectly in hand while providing a rock solid grip. An open frame set on barrel spacers keeps the knife incredibly light.
The blade is well centered and the action is smooth. The blade can be deployed easily using the ambidextrous flipper or the dual thumbstuds. The button lock will lock the blade both open and closed. Includes a pocket clip mounted for right-handed tip-up carry.
Excellent work throughout!
