The Viper Knives Kyomi is a bearing driven, titanium-frame-lock flipper designed in collaboration with custom knife maker Jesper Voxnaes. This knife has a drop point blade made from Bohler N690Co with a high-height Saber grind. N690Co takes a fine edge and is highly corrosion resistant. The Saber grind gives this blade plenty of thickness at the spine for a more robust blade while still allowing a very fine cutting edge. The titanium frame lock has a hardened steel lock face insert providing vault like lock up and, in conjunction with the bearing pivot, smooth operation of the knife. Scale options include G10, Carbon Fiber, and Titanium and all variants are constructed with titanium hardware including the back spacer/lanyard hole and the ambidextrous ,tip-up, titanium pocket clip. Made to perfection in Maniago, Italy.Check them out now at GPKnives.
