Amare Paragon A-Joint Bohler N690 G10 Folding Pocket Knife 201810
The PARAGON with the newly developed Amare Knives "A-Joint" mechanism is a special folding knife, two-handed to operate and therefore everywhere to lead and use, where you can use a pocket knife!
The development of the "A-Joint" mechanism has several advantages. On the one hand, the slip joint mechanism is connected to the joint with only one double-legged spring (dragonfly wing shape). Here, the upper leg, which holds the blade open, due to its material strength over more pressure than the lower leg, thereby allowing easier and extremely fast opening. On the other hand, the blade length is greater than in conventional slip joint systems. In the area of safety, the A-Joint system also has the positive property that the blade is safely in the grip area when it is closed.
The blade is finished in a stonewashed look. The blade length is 3.23" with a blade thickness of 0.12". Opened, it has a total length of 7.64". With a weight of 4.40 oz, it is stable and sustainable in the hand even under heavy use and allows safe driving.
The high-grade N690 steel from Böhler, which is also known under the material 1.4528 or VG10 or 440MOD steel, is a stainless, high-alloy steel, which was developed especially for the food industry and is used for corrosion-resistant knife types with demanding cutting tasks , For stainless steel, the N690 contains a relatively high carbon content, namely 1%. That's why the N690 is harder than most stainless steels on the market. It has very good cutting properties and can therefore be sharpened extremely sharp. Due to the combination of very good edge retention and the easy-care properties, the N690 steel is also often used for surgical instruments.
Milled handle shell is made of G10 high-pressure fiberglass laminate. It is created by several layers of glass fabric in conjunction with epoxy resin and compressed under heat. Because of its very high strength, low moisture absorption, excellent electrical insulating properties and chemical resistance, these properties are retained even under humid conditions.
