Real Steel Knives G5 Metamorph Compact Front Flipper Knife

The G5 Metamorph is the flagship of Real Steel design and innovation in the G(Gentleman)-Class. Ostap Hel’s unfailing ability at producing sublime design has been combined beautifully with Real Steel's constant drive for innovation in structure. The Metamorph Compact is fitted with a VG-10 stainless steel blade that brandishes a false edge on top of the blade. It's a front flipper design fitted with bearings for smooth, unhindered opening action. The liner lock is hidden completely out of sight in the frame of the handle and to maintain its feather-light feel the handle and backspacer are entirely made of 7075 aluminum. The backspacer has also been designed and developed for complete safety when closed, due to the smooth contoured lines. The top of the blade also has a milled-out "digit stop" for maximum control and effectiveness when cutting smaller objects.
