Handle : Stabilized beech. Thanks to a special technical process, a stabilized wood is saturated with synthetic resin. The stabilized beech gets the technical qualities of a resin but retains all its aesthetic qualities as well.
Blade : Stainless swedish 14C28N steel, 2 mm thick. Hardness: 58-59 Hrc. In order to provide a comfortable balance and a nicer knife, the blade tip folds into a groove which is milled into the spring.
Size and weight : 10 cm folded, 17.5 cm open, approx. 80 grams.
Tecnical tips : The spring with its lock-back system is made from 2 mm thick stainless steel 100C6. A solid hardenned bladestop is provided: that helps maintain the edge of the blade. The bee is solid and forged into the spring. The spring and bee are then hand-chased with a file: this denotes artisan quality, unlike inexpensive mass market products that have welded springs and are machine decorated. These details create a unique Le Thiers knife, making each knife one of a kind.
Included : Numbered Guarantee certificate, leather pouch. The pouch is an artisan product too, hand made in France.
