Description:
The WE Knife Shadowfire is another masterful pocket knife designed by Rafal Brzeski, alias 'Brr ... knives'. An industrial-grade grip pattern on the handle ensures a comfortable grip. The generous blade length makes it suitable for large cutting tasks. It's the perfect choice for knife fans who value high quality!
The shadowfire is a hefty EDC knife in the colour black. With its blade length of 9.9 cm, it's especially suited for demanding cutting tasks. This is not a compact knife! When closed, it measures 12.7 cm in length and it weighs 125 g.
Opening the Shadowfire 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 Damasteel
The blade of this WE Knife Shadowfire is made of Damasteel damascus. This material is truly something special. There are enough manufacturers who make good damascus steel, but the Swedish company Damasteel really takes it to the next level. This is because they use two powder steels for forging the damascus. Powder steels have a very fine grain structure at the microscopic level, ensuring they are harder and that they retain their sharpness for a longer time than conventional types of steel. Damasteel uses two powder steels, RWL34 and PMC27, forged together. Not only does it look incredibly cool, it also stays sharp for a long time and can take a beating. This steel also contains more than 13% chromium. This also makes it very corrosion resistant. Therefore, this steel is not just eye candy, it's also a fantastic practical choice!
Damasteel is based in Söderfors, Sweden. This town has been known for its steel production since 1676. Damasteel builds on this tradition, using state-of-the-art techniques and materials to bring that classic trade into the 21st century.
Titanium handle
The handle of the Shadowfire is made of titanium and measures 12.7 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.
