Chris Reeve Large Sebenza 31 Drop Point Polished S45VN Titanium Folder with Bog Oak Inlays

Details

The Sebenza 31 is an update to the time-tested and proven design of the classic Sebenza 21. Updated features include a Ceramic Ball Interface frame lock, off-set clip, improved ergonomics, full front inlay and tighter tolerances from improved machining processes. Sebenza means “work” in Zulu, and the heirloom quality model 31 will see plenty of work over its lifetime. This Large Sebenza 31 comes with a stonewashed CPM-S45VN drop point blade and sandblasted titanium handles.

Brand new, direct from Chris Reeve Knives.

Blade: The CPM-S45VN drop point blade has a deep hollow grind offering exceptional slicing performance, extended blade life and solid durability. A polished finish hides wear from use while pairing with the crowned spine for a classy look. The bronze titanium thumb lug allows for easy grasp of the blade with smooth, hydraulic operation on the oversize bronze washer pivot.

Handle: Ergonomically enhanced, matte gray sandblasted 6AL4V titanium handle slabs have a subtle texture and develop a unique patina with time and carry. The Reeve Integral Lock utilizes the titanium frame to deliver “bank vault” lockup, while the Ceramic Ball Interface enhances reliability, lock life and provides smooth operation. Includes a tube of fluorinated grease, microfiber cloth and information packet.

Carries via a right-hand titanium pocket clip.

CPM-S45VN: An evolution in Crucible's S30-series, S45VN shows improved edge retention and corrosion resistance relative to S35VN and offers an upgrade to Elmax with better hardness, corrosion resistance, toughness, and sharpness with similar edge retention.
