LionSteel Thrill Green Aluminum Folding Knife, Satin M390 by Molletta (TL A GS)

Thrill Green Aluminum, Satin Blade

Ultralight, classic folder from Italian manufactory LionSteel with a handle made with technology Solid®. Proof of the achievement of high technological development used in the production of knives. Equipped with a mechanism SlipJoint, "no lock", built from a single piece of material. Excellent tool for most cutting jobs, socially friendly, legal in most countries.

Design by Molletta, designed by a well-known and respected Italian designer with many years of experience. Michele Pensato (ps. Molletta), is distinguished by a new approach to the use of materials and experiments in the application of heat treatment and the use of advanced software in the design of knives.

M390 Microclean® - martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to the alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so that the blade remains sharp for a very long time (requires minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is the resistance to the formation of "wire" during sharpening. High chromium steel 20.0% (Cr) doped 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), hardened between 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.

SlipJoint - "no lock" non-blocking mechanism used in folders. Uses spring-loaded pressure on the flat notch on the back of the blade to keep the blade open during use. Slip Joint holds the wedge in both the folded and unfolded positions. Force is required to fold / unfold the knife.

IKBS - (ball bearing system) allows fast, smooth opening of the wedge.

Head - Drop Point provides excellent cutting edge geometry. Plain blade Plain brought out full flat grind (Full Flat Grind), which perfectly presents matte satin blade finish. Knife opened with notches on both sides of the blade nail nick.

Handle - in green. Made of a single block (one piece) of solid aluminum processed in accordance with technology Solid® Knife. When using machine tools CNC lightweight, monolithic skeleton (body) of the highest strength was obtained, which is a solid structural element. Non-slip cover texture for better grip.

H.WAYL - (Hide What Annoys You Lionsteel) hidden right-side clip allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up (tip up). The clip is ejected using only the button. A solution appreciated during long-term use of the knife, when the classic stand-off clip can interfere with work.
