A spring loaded bar drops into a notch on the blade tang, so the lock gets stronger under load rather than weaker, and it disengages with a single motion that works the same for either hand. Demko holds the patent on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCPM-3V\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e3V is a toughness steel, not an edge retention steel. It is the one you pick when you would rather roll an edge than chip one, which is why it shows up on hard use fixed blades and on folders meant to be treated like fixed blades. Paired with quarter inch blade stock, this is not a knife built to be delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBlack G10 Enhanced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack G10 with an aggressive milled texture across the full scale.
