ARTISAN CUTLERY PROPONENT ATZ-1820P D2 BLADE CARBON FIBER HANDLE FOLDING KNIVES

Description The Proponent can be summarized in one word, uncompromising. This substantial knife is the product of a collaboration between Artisan Cutlery and long-time designer Dirk Pinkerton. The Proponent carries on Dirk’s fondness for chunky Wharncliffe style blades but takes it a few steps further with smooth ceramic bearings, a large flipper tab, and a beefy frame. To add an extra layer of assurance we have included a hardened steel pin that can be screwed into the handle frame to lock the knife in the opened or closed position. This is by far the most overbuilt knife in the Artisan line and we could not be happier with the results.   SPECIFICATIONS Blade Length 3.84"(97.45mm) Blade Thickness 0.18"(4.6mm) Blade Finish Stone Wash Blade Grind Flat Blade Material D2 Blade Hardness HRC59-61 Blade Style Wharncliffe Overall Length 8.86(224.94mm) Closed Length 5.02(127.49mm) Handle Material Carbon Fiber Clip Material Steel Pivot Assembly Ceramic Ball Bearing Weight 9.5oz/270g Lock Type Liner Lock
