The titanium handle has Medford’s PVD finish, and comes complete with an integral pommel that has a Bronze finish. The spring (framelock) side has a PVD finish . Incorporates Medford’s standard (stainless steel) hardware with a Bronze finish. The drop point style blade is CPM-S35VN steel with a black PVD finish. Features a sculpted titanium clip (Bronze Finish) with a ball bearing pressed into it for retention.

CPM-S35VN Steel: CPM S35VN is a quality stainless steel from Crucible Industries. Despite the high level of toughness in this steel, which usually diminishes a steel’s wear resistance, this steel does not lose out on a superior resistance to wear and chipping. Combined with carbon, the niobium carbides make the steel more effective in providing resistance to wear and edge chipping than if it were more dependent on chromium, which is the case with many other steels. The resulting edge holding ability of this steel is remarkable, ensuring S35VN steel to be a long lasting one.
