Steel

BECUT - stainless steel patent BESTAR, used to make knives for industry, used in deep sea fishing. Steel has very high corrosion resistance and strength at low temperatures. Thanks to the content of niobium steel provides very high cutting performance.

Head

Type drop point finished with scratch-masking and anti-glare Stonewashed technology. The light belly extends the length of the cutting edge relative to the length of the blade converging toward the needle-sharp tip of the knife in combination with the the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting properties. The blade was set on Teflon washers supporting the work of the opening mechanism, so that you can efficiently unfold the folder with the help of a disk on the back of the head (thumb disc). This solution allows the knife to be opened effortlessly by both left- and right-handed people. The whole thing is locked with the proven lock liner lock.

Handle

Chamfered facings of green micarta (pressure-pressed canvas with synthetic resin). Surface of covers with tactile fine texture improving grip confidence, slightly profiled. All mounted to a frame of stainless steel. To stiffen the structure, the frame was bolted to an aluminum backspacer in a contrasting orange color. Simple, sturdy design provides assurance of many years of use. The backspacer has a hidden lanyard hole, that is, a place for a safety or decorative cord. Onepositional clip right side metal type wire allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in the tip-up (blade tip up).
