CJRB Nova J1937 AR-RPM9 Steel Blade G10 Handle Folding Knives

Designed by Christain Porterfield My inspiration came from knives I have in my collection and knives that really spoke to me aesthetically. I tend toward very neutral, plain shapes for handles and scales, which I think comes through clearly in the Nova. My favorite opening method is thumbstuds, so naturally I went with those when I was designing. As far as the blade shape and grind, those attributes were things I was really liking at the time in other knives. I draw designs in my notebook occasionally and I found that I kept coming back to the Japanese tanto blade shape with a harpoon and compound grind when I was designing something for the competition.  Specification Blade Length 3.45" (87.7mm) Blade Thickness 0.11"(2.7mm) Blade Finish Sand Polish Blade Grind Flat Blade Material AR-RPM9 Blade Hardness HRC59-61 Blade Style Tanto Handle Material G10 Clip Material Steel Pivot Assembly Ceramic Ball Bearing Lock Type Liner Lock Overall Length 7.9"(200.7mm) Closed Length 4.45" (113mm) Weight 90g/3.18oz
