Niolox - tool steel with good edge holding and high strength. Hardened between 58-63 HRC. It is characterized by aggressive cutting and good impact strength. The name comes from the element niobium (Nb), one of the best carbides, which contributes to the wear resistance of the steel. Niolox includes it 0.7%.

Head - massive in shape Drop Point and thickness 5 mm with a clearly marked belly of the cutting edge. Satinized smooth blade Plain brought out full flat grind (Full Flat Grind) provides strength and the tapering of the blade towards the tip reduces weight improving the geometry of the cutting edge. On the back of the wedge upper jimping, notched thumb rest.
Handle - covered with raised grip covers made of Canvas Micarta, pressure-pressed canvas plastics with synthetic resin. Profiled and machined using technology 3D for better ergonomics, provide a firm grip. Enlarged protrusion acts as a gut protecting the hand from slipping on the blade. Mounted with screws Torx T8 made of stainless steel, the facings can be removed to make an improvised spear out of the knife.
Vagina - extended, protecting the head along with part of the handle. Made of natural leather in color brown embossed with the manufacturer's logo. Fastened with a snap fastener type Prym.
