NANO is the latest knife from the hi-tech family, an ideal partner for everyday activities.

The blade is made of CPM MagnaCut steel with satin finish equipped with "ReF" (Removable Flipper system) applied on the new minimal lever, Double Crown ball bearing system and Solida titanium clip.

The titanium frame locking bar is reinforced with a hardened steel insert so that the titanium part will not be worn out by the rotation of the blade over time.
The clip, CNC-milled from a single piece of titanium, is reversible so it can be attached on the opposite side for left-handed users.

The removable Flipper system allows the user to decide whether the blade should have the trigger or not, which can be installed as needed or removed and replaced with the second "cap" screw.

lionSTEEL-Emerson ONE is the new SOLID® Karambit knife developed in collaboration with Emerson Design.

The Solid frame-lock handle, already a distinguishing feature of lionSTEEL, is machined from a solid piece of Ergal aluminum, while the blade is made of CPM MagnaCut steel.

Other built-in features make the knife more comfortable and safer to use, allowing the end user to choose how to use it:

* REF (REmovable Flipper system): this feature allows you to choose how to use the knife, if you don't want the flipper you can unscrew it and remove it using the torx tool and insert the second "cap" screw that fits perfectly into the hole at the bottom of the blade.

* Wave: Ernest Emerson's patented system that allows the blade to catch on the pocket of the pants, on extraction, allowing it to open automatically with the right motion.

ROK, which is part of the SOLID knives family made from a single piece of aluminum or titanium, has two important innovations:

* the introduction of the new H.WAYL System; it is a LionSteel patent that allows the clip to disappear inside the handle when using the knife. The clip can appear only when needed.

* the introduction of NFC technology into the knife box. With this system the user no longer has to look for the information on the product, but it is the knife itself that makes them available: indications for maintenance, in-depth information on the production process, or more general information about LionSteel.

As was already the case with the TRE model, the user has the possibility to remove the pinball machine, opting for a more traditional two-handed blade opening. Also on the ROK there is the Rotoblock safety system and a steel tip on the end of the blade locking bar: in this way it is possible to prevent breakage or wear caused by the blade itself.
