The result is a knife that carries the same confident button liner lock action and thumb stud deployment as the aluminum Model 3, but feels different in the hand and cuts differently at the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eG10 is a fiberglass-based composite that provides a warmer, more tactile grip than anodized aluminum. It absorbs less light, shows less reflection, and gives the Model 3 a slightly more traditional feel without changing the precision of the mechanism underneath. The smoother blade grind on the MagnaCut removes the stepped milling of the previous version, giving the blade cleaner geometry behind the edge and a more refined slicing character. Same 64 HRC heat treat and cryogenic temper. The steel performs the same. The grind makes it cut better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eButton liner lock: push the button to disengage, one-handed thumb stud deployment.

G10 carries warmer and grips more positively, and the smoother grind on the MagnaCut blade is a genuine improvement over the stepped milling on the original version. Michael Martin made a deliberate choice on both counts.
