Artisan Cutlery Tortoise 1884G S35VN Steel Blade Titanium Handle Folding Knives Purple

The Tortoise Designed by Dusty Rhodes | Artisan Cutlery Design Philosophy "At Blade Show Texas, I found myself enamoured with some of the oversized knives around, especially the Titanium framelocks. That just put the idea in my head to try designing one for myself. Something big and beefy, but still maintaining the huge blade in a small handle design spin I like to give my knives." "Once the overall profile was set, I thought it looked a bit like a turtle, thus the name: Tortoise." — Dusty Rhodes Why the Tortoise stands out 🛡️ Premium Materials: Crafted with a robust Titanium handle and S35VN blade steel for exceptional edge retention and durability. 📐 Optimized Ratio: Features Dusty Rhodes' signature design style—packing a huge 3.7" Wharncliffe blade into a compact 5.04" handle. ⚙️ Smooth Action: Equipped with a ceramic ball bearing pivot assembly and a secure Titanium Frame Lock for snappy deployment and solid lockup.
