Real-World Benefits
Longer Cutting Between Sharpenings: D2’s high wear resistance means fewer touchups during heavy box cuts, carpet, plastic banding, and rope.
Low-Maintenance Exterior: TiCN’s hardness resists scratches and helps protect against rust in humid or coastal environments.
Secure Control: The textured aluminum scales and ergonomic shaping support a locked-in grip for careful, precise cuts.
Workday Comfort: Aluminum keeps weight down, reducing pocket fatigue while still feeling substantial in the hand.
Everyday Practicality: A plain edge is easy to maintain and excels at food prep, zip ties, cordage, cardboard, and fire-start prep.
Ideal Use Cases
Everyday Carry (EDC): Daily packages, errands, office and warehouse tasks.
Shop & Jobsite: Cutting hose, stripping wire jackets, trimming plastics.
Outdoor & Travel: Camp chores, cordage and tarp work, trail snacks.
Emergency Readiness: Seatbelt/strap cutting and general utility—always follow local laws and carry responsibly.
Care & Maintenance
Edge Care: Touch up with a ceramic rod or fine diamond stone; finish with a light strop to keep the D2 keen.
Cleaning: Wipe the blade after use; avoid harsh abrasives that can dull the TiCN sheen.
Lubrication: A drop of quality knife oil at the pivot maintains smooth opening and reduces wear.
Storage: Keep dry; if storing long term, add a thin film of oil on the blade and hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s special about D2 steel?
A: D2 balances excellent edge retention and wear resistance with good toughness—great for frequent cutting of cardboard, plastics, and rope.
Q: Why a plain edge instead of serrations?
A: A plain edge makes clean, precise cuts, is easier to sharpen in the field, and won’t snag finer materials like paracord sheaths.
Q: Does the TiCN coating help in real life?
A: Yes—TiCN increases surface hardness, reduces friction, and improves corrosion resistance, so the blade looks better and cleans up faster after sticky cuts.
Q: Is the handle truly aluminum? Will it slip?
A: The textured aluminum handle is lightweight yet rigid, with a grippy pattern that maintains control even with gloves or wet hands.
