7Cr17 ADVANCED STEEL
The Knives are made with 7Cr17 Advanced steel, which offers an even better balance between lasting sharpness and durability with 2x the carbon content of some other “premium” knives.

UNIQUE SLOPED BOLSTER
Our unique sloped bolster pulls double duty: the sloped shape encourages a proper “pinch grip” for comfort and control, while the bolster’s placement creates better access to the full length of the blade.

15° BLADE ANGLES
While most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees, we use more acute 15 degree angles for a noticeably sharper cutting face.
