The LionSteel M3 is a compact and versatile fixed-blade knife, designed to be carried comfortably every day without sacrificing the reliability needed for outdoor and field activities. Its compact size makes it practical to carry, while its sturdy construction ensures high performance in any situation.

The satin-finished blade is made of Niolox stainless steel, an alloy prized for its excellent balance of cutting ability, wear resistance, and corrosion protection. Designed for heavy-duty use, it offers reliable performance in both camping activities and everyday tasks.

The handle is crafted using 3D machining, a process that yields an extremely comfortable and natural ergonomic profile. The unique surface texture ensures a firm and secure grip even under the most demanding conditions. The scales are also removable and available in various materials, including olive wood, Santos wood, and Micarta, allowing you to choose the look and feel that best suits your preferences.

The scales are secured with sturdy T8 Torx stainless steel screws, ensuring durability and ease of maintenance.

The LionSteel M3 comes with an elegant leather sheath in the versions with a wooden handle, while the Micarta variant is accompanied by a practical Cordura sheath, ideal for more intensive outdoor use.

ROK, part of the SOLID knife family, is made from a single piece of aluminum or titanium and introduces two major innovations. The first is the new H.WAYL System, a LionSteel patent that allows the clip to disappear inside the handle when the knife is in use, reappearing only when needed. The second is the integration of NFC technology into the packaging, which allows the user to immediately access all product information—from maintenance and the production process to content dedicated to the LionSteel brand—simply by placing their smartphone close to the packaging.

As with the TRE model, the user can remove the flipper to obtain a more traditional, two-handed blade opening. The ROK also retains the proven Rotoblock safety system and a steel tip at the end of the blade lock bar, which helps prevent breakage or wear due to contact with the blade itself.

Winner in 2016 at the Blade Show in Atlanta as "Overall Knife of the Year"

Metamorphosis handle: it is an aluminum handle with a special heat-sensitive coating. Normally the handle is black, but when the temperature reaches 22-23 ° C, it changes color! If you hold the knife in your hand for a couple of minutes, the black handle will become Camouflage.

Given the production difficulty of the handle and the extreme delicacy of the same, the production of this variant ceased definitively in 2017. The first production was characterized by the presence of the clip, the second production proposed a knife without a clip, but accompanied by a sheath a leather.
