Description: Trevor Burger is a second-generation knifemaker following in the steps of his father, Fred Burger. He has an eye for detail. His knives have exceptionally smooth action and clean, no-nonsense designs. This custom EXK CFL is a compact folder with a streamlined design that may make you really appreciate the details. This knife was kept in a private collection since it was made in 2019. It is in new condition and by all appearances Trevor could have made it yesterday!
The EXK was originally developed by Trevor's father, Fred Burger in conjunction with Mike Skellern, and continues to be one of the most popular folders that he makes. The blade runs on ball bearings and has silky-smooth action. It is easily opened single-handed using the gent's front flipper. This mechanism is not designed to be flicked open, but instead is simply rotated out with the thumb or forefinger. The blade is well centered.
The blade is M390 stainless steel with a hand rubbed satin finish. M390 is a super-steel created by Bohler in Austria. It takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds onto it due to a high concentration of vanadium and chromium carbides. Its unique powder metallurgical process also promotes a uniform carbide distribution and clean steel properties, making M390 a popular steel used in surgical cutting instruments and in applications requiring a high finish. It offers excellent corrosion resistance due to its high concentration of chromium.
The handle is 3D machined Grade 5 titanium and features a handsome bead blasted finish. Trevor's maker mark is engraved into the lockside of the handle. The titanium backbar, pivot collar, and pocket clip are all anodized a deep blue. The pocket clip is mounted for right-side, tip-up carry.
Excellent work throughout!
