High content 13.5% chromium (Cr) and 0.85% carbon (C) provide high corrosion resistance, and the addition of alloying elements manganese 1.0% (Mn), silicon 1.0% (Si) and cobalt 1.0% (Co) increase the strength and hardness of steel. Hardness 3Cr13 can range from 60-62 HRC depending on the manufacturer. Easy to sharpen, widely used in the manufacture of knives, scissors and medical equipment.

Stone Washed PVD - the blade has undergone a fine scratch-masking finish Stone Washed. Subsequently, the durability of the wedge surface and the cutting edge was increased by a method involving physical vapor deposition PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) of a thin surface coating, in which a layer of coating material is deposited on a substrate by condensation from the vapor phase to the solid phase. The applied coating has a very high hardness, which significantly increases the resistance of the blade to abrasive wear.

Head - type Clip Point. Long cutting edge with clearly marked belly, converges towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. Thickness of the wedge provides high durability while high, flat grinding guarantees excellent cutting properties. The washers are responsible for the smooth and smooth operation of the opening mechanism with the help of the hole in the wedge (Thumb Hole). Locking mechanism Liner-Lock.
