[WE Knife] Diatomic Blackwashed Titanium, CPM-20CV Dagger

Description:

The WE Knife Diatomic is an eccentric pocket knife. It's designed to look like a dagger, or even a small sword. It is not either of those things, however! The Diatomic is a high-quality tough EDC pocket knife. The blade is pointed, but is sharpened on only one side.

The WE Knife Diatomic is a hefty EDC knife in the colour black. With its blade length of 9.6 cm, it's especially suited for demanding cutting tasks. This is not a compact knife! When closed, it measures 12 cm in length and it weighs 100 g.

Opening the Diatomic is quick and easy thanks to the flipper, which you can do one-handed of course. The pocket knife is equipped with ceramic ball bearings to make the action of the blade super smooth. Once opened, the frame lock ensures that the knife is locked and won't unintentionally close.

Blade made of CPM 20CV steel
The blade of the Diatomic is made of CPM 20CV steel. This is premium steel made in the United States by Crucible Industries. CPM 20CV is popular because it is very hard and therefore retains its sharpness well. Moreover, 20CV is very corrosion resistant. These features make it an excellent choice for a pocket knife. In terms of composition and use, CPM 20CV is very similar to Böhler M390, another popular steel. Because CPM 20CV is incredibly hard, we recommend sharpening this pocket knife with diamond sharpening stones or ceramic sharpening stones, or a sharpening system that uses these sharpening stones.

Titanium handle
The handle of this WE Knife Diatomic is made of titanium and measures 12 cm in length. Titanium is a fantastic high-tech material. It is an excellent choice for the handle of a pocket knife for several reasons: titanium is very strong, lightweight and it is flexible. Moreover, titanium can be machined very precisely and a wide range of different finishes are possible. To be exact, the handle is made of a titanium alloy. Small amounts of aluminium and vanadium are added to pure titanium to make it even more suitable for use as a pocket knife handle.
