Description: Riaan Manser is a full-time knife maker from South Africa. Manser works under the brand name 3LegDog -- named for his pit bull cross dog which lost its hind leg when still a puppy. Manser and his dog spent many days and nights sitting along side each other in the knifemaking studio. Regretfully, his beloved dog passed away during the summer of 2018. These handmade knives are well built and combine a great fit and finish with spectacular action.
This Model H4 Flipper features a blade formed from premium Bohler ELMAX stainless steel, with a Rockwell hardness of 61. ELMAX provides the extreme edge retention, high strength, and toughness a hard-use knife demands. High wear resistance in a steel usually means low corrosion resistance, but not with ELMAX. With this advanced steel, you get both properties, which makes it an excellent steel for high end folders. The blade features hand satin finished grinds and polished flats.
The blade runs on caged bearings. It is perfectly centered, has silky-smooth action, and is easily opened single-handed using the flipper tab. It drops shut with no resistance.
The handle is formed from carbon fiber set on orange G-10 spacers. Anodized Gr6 titanium liners keep this full sized knife light yet strong. The backspacer is formed from black G10. The custom pivot and pivot collar are made from titanium. The handle is completed with a titanium pocket clip mounted for right-side, tip-up carry.
Exceptional work throughout!
