Description: South African knifemaker André Thorburn creates an exceptional folder at an amazingly low price. The blade is perfectly centered and has silky smooth action.
The drop point Panzer 36 stainless blade is meticulously hand satin finished in the grinds and mirror polished on the flats. Panzer 36 is a martensitic stainless steel with high hardness, high wear resistance and good corrosion resistance. It is cross rolled in production to cancel out residual stresses from the manufacturing process. It has gained significant acclaim from South African makers, where it has quickly found popularity. Mastersmith Kevin Harvey has been involved in the initial testing of Panzer 36 and describes it as having 'excellent edge holding and toughness.'
The scales combine black G10 with coyote brown G10 in a finely fitted inlay. Rather than using two separate pieces end-butted together, Andre created the G10 handle and inlaid a separate section of coyote brown G10 into the bolster section. This results in very strong scales! The handle is completed with blue anodized titanium liners. Exceptional fit throughout.
