The weight of the blade carrier is doing the same work against less mass, and you notice it the first time you run one. It is also the reason carbon fiber Hydras cost what they do, since the chassis is machined from a material that is slower and harder to cut than aluminum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRose Gold Against Black\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDLC is a diamond like carbon coating applied in a vacuum chamber, harder than the steel underneath it. Rose gold is a warm pink that reads differently depending on the light, and against the black weave of the carbon fiber it is the only color on the knife. Carrying it across the hardware, the clip and the charging plate means it is not just a blade finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMagnaCut\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagnaCut was designed to stop forcing a choice between edge retention and corrosion resistance. Under DLC it is doing the work while the coating handles the looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAn Automatic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOut the front automatics are restricted in a number of states and cities.
