This is the knife that represented lionSTEEL at the Atlanta 2024 Blade Show in the Manufacturing Quality Award competition; it was a challenging project to make. It is a button-lock knife that has both integral frame and handle (a “SOLID® squared”). The parts need to be milled with high precision so that they fit together perfectly ensuring both quality of operation and final aesthetics.

It features a satin-finished CPM MagnaCut steel blade, the frame is made of titanium while the handle is made of carbon fiber, Canvas or G10.

Being manufacturers and having innovation and improvement of quality standard as our goals, receiving the “Manufacturing Quality Award” with this closer was a great honor.
