What Makes This Different

CPM MagnaCut steel represents the latest advancement in knife metallurgy, offering superior edge retention and corrosion resistance compared to traditional stainless steels. The reverse tanto blade geometry provides enhanced tip strength for piercing tasks while maintaining excellent slicing capability along the straight edge. The hybrid handle construction pairs lightweight aluminum with carbon fiber inlays for optimal strength-to-weight ratio.

Field testing demonstrates consistent deployment speed and lockup reliability across temperature ranges. The CPM MagnaCut blade maintains sharpness through extended cutting sessions involving cardboard, rope, and similar materials. The textured handle provides secure grip in wet conditions, while the automatic mechanism functions reliably after thousands of actuations.
