A large, yet extremely lightweight folding nó from the Slim series with a 12-centimeter locking blade. A classic from a French manufacturer with over 100 years of tradition.
.The blade with a profile Trailing Point is made of Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel and polished to a high gloss. The blade is brought out with a flat-full grind close to zero-grind, which, combined with the small thickness of the blade, provides above-average cutting qualities. N is ideal for filleting.
Opening the knife is possible thanks to a notch on the head, just like in Victorinox pocket knives. In the open position, the head is locked with the Viroblock, patented in 1955. This is a steel ring on the handle located at the level of the axis of rotation of the head. When the knife is opened, it is rotated by a few degrees, so that it covers the blade slot in the handle, so that the head has no possibility of movement. In an analogous wayób we secure the nó¿ from accidental opening after folding.
The handle is made of wood beech and coated with a clear, abrasion-resistant varnish. It is ergonomically contoured and provides a firm, stable grip. An additional advantage of the handle is its susceptibility to modification. The simplest would be to drill a hole on the back of the handle for a safety cable. We can also give it any texture, subject it to carving and stain it to the color of your choice.
