The choice of titanium for the handle is not just about aesthetics—though its sleek, modern look is certainly a bonus. Titanium is renowned for its strength-to-weight ratio, offering incredible durability while remaining incredibly lightweight. It’s highly resistant to corrosion, meaning your knife will stay looking great and function perfectly for years to come.

For the blade, we’ve chosen M390 steel, one of the best materials available for premium knives. Known for its outstanding edge retention, wear resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance, M390 ensures that your blade stays sharp longer, even with frequent use.

Why Choose M390 Over D2 and Damascus?
M390 excels in edge retention, wear, and corrosion resistance, requiring less maintenance than D2. While Damascus looks striking, M390 outperforms it in durability and sharpness.
For unmatched performance and reliability, choose M390.
