Steel Will Daitengu Liner Lock Satin D2 Black G10 Folder F11-01

The Daitengu is a gentleman’s tactical folder with a minimalist style and standout, semi-integral milled G10 handle. The Daitengu is compact and light weight being a perfect choice for urban EDC or carry in any environment where size and weight are a concern. Clean lines and an ergonomic design are sure to please anyone who gets one of these well crafted cutting tools in hand. This version comes with a satin finished D2 blade, smooth black G10 handle and stainless steel liner lock.

Blade: The D2 tool steel blade is capable of some serious cutting with a slender, 3mm thick blade with a high flat grind for solid slicing performance. The blade maintains its thickness for most of the length before it tapers to a fine yet robust tip that delivers powerful piercing performance. It opens smoothly via the dual thumb studs riding on durable bronze washers. The blade is satin finished for performance and style.

Handle: The clean, minimal lines of the smooth black G10 handles give the knife a stylish look while providing a secure and comfortable grip. An index finger cutout gives access to the stainless steel liner lock mechanism; simple, robust and secure, and provides a guard to prevent sliding onto the blade. The single-liner, semi-integral construction make for a lightweight folder that is easy to maintain. A hole is provided for inline lanyard attachment.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up stainless steel deep carry pocket clip.

D2 Tool Steel: D2 is a cold work tool steel that has been used as a die cutting steel since WW II. D2 has a high chromium content for a tool steel (10-13%) which gives it greater corrosion resistance than most high carbon steels making it semi-stainless. D2 offers a good combination of toughness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance for a good all around knife steel.
