Nitro-V new chromium-based stainless martensitic knife steel introduced by New Jersey Steel Baron (NJSB). The manufacturer used an existing superior knife steel AEB-L and upgraded it with nitrogen and vanadium to improve edge performance and achieve high hardness and extreme corrosion resistance, especially crucial in the marine industry and humid environments. Nitro V can be used in diving knives due to its resistance to staining and corrosion. The recommended working hardness is in the range of 58-62HRC, has very good impact strength compared to other steels. It is harder than stainless powder steels, such as M390, Elmax i S35VN. Therefore Nitro-V will be a good fit for knives that require good durability.

Slip Joint holds the wedge in both the folded and unfolded positions. When folding, it generates smooth resistance as in a knife equipped with a traditional locking mechanism. To avoid accidental opening during handling, the blade is held in the closed position by two steel balls Double Detent, one on each side of the blade.

The generous belly extends the length of the cutting edge relative to the length of the blade converging toward the needle-sharp tip of the knife.

Ceramic ball bearings support the smooth opening of the blade, which can be opened with a front flipper. As a result, it can easily be used by people right and left-handed. To maintain full control of the blade, the back of the blade is coated with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest. The whole thing is interlocked by a simple interlock that is allowed in many countries Double Detent Slip Joint.
