Sea Skorpion
Description:
With the Skorpion series, we introduced what we refer to as Featherlite steel. The weight is near what you would expect with Titanium handles. A.G. and Phil Gibbs engineered the handle sides in a way that has allowed the removal of all excess from the thickness of the steel. The steel is removed from the inside of the handle, so you have to look closely to see how they have accomplished this. The Sea Skorpion was designed for specific usage, but also functions beautifully as an everyday knife. This is a highly useful frame-lock folder with a wider than normal General Purpose Blade, a flipper and a hole in the blade that allows for very easy opening and closing with either hand. Any Sailor s knife must have a serrated portion of the blade for cutting rope, so we tested every serration pattern we could find and selected the one that did the very best job, adding it to the half of the blade edge nearest the pivot. It does not look aggressive, but it cuts the toughest rope as if it were soft butter. The 3-1 2 general purpose blade is 8Cr13MoV at 57-59 Rc. with a satin finish. The marlin spike measures 2-1 4 . Measures 4-1 2 closed. Weighs 3.6 oz. Made in China.
