Rike Knife- an independent brand founded by a long-time knife enthusiast,Richard Wu.With a background in mechanical design and manufacturing, he is constantly striving for excellence and perfection helped by his professional design team and his own independent factory.RikeKnifeis an unconventional brand, grounded in original design, which has the courage to become an innovator and challenge the traditional solutions used by contemporary knife companies. It uses only the highest quality materials to produce knives of excellent quality for customers around the world. Enjoying a well-deserved reputation in the world of knives, the brand relies on high quality workmanship and an innovative approach to design. This was appreciated, among others, by the legendary American brandMicrotech,which, for the first time in its history, commissioned its designed products to be made outside the US, precisely by the Chinese company Rikeknife. These includeSOCOM BravoandAnaxfolders andKyroh Pentactical pens.
M390- a martensitic high-performance chromium steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to the alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of “wire” during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of20.0%(Cr) doped with1.9%carbon (C), vanadium4.0%(V), and is hardened between59-61 HRC.This super steel is comparable to Carpenter’s CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured byBöhler Edelstahlin Kapfenberg, Austria.
DLC(DiamondLikeCarbon) durability of the blade surface is enhanced with a matte black nanocomposite coating, which exhibits unique properties such as exceptional hardness and low friction, as well as excellent corrosion protection. It is one of the most resistant coatings to scratches and abrasion that are used in the industry, including the knife industry.
Blade -harpoontype, coated with blackDLCcoating.The long cutting edge, converges towards the needle-sharp tip of the wide blade. Thethickness of the bladeand grain providehigh strength.A mixed grind is used here, in the rear part isa concavegrind for cutting and precision work, the so-calledHollow Ground Primary Bevel. In the front part, we have a highFlat Groundtip reinforcement grind.We can open the knife using afront flipperor an elongated hole in the blade (Thumb Hole). The whole is locked with a modernFrame Lockwith a steel inlay to prevent wiping of the lock face.
Handle- made oftitanium 6AL4Valso coated with DLC, beautifully milled with the help ofCNCmachine tools.The whole is bolted to an amazingly milledbackspacer, also made of titanium. The pivot axis is decorated with a stylized screw. A fore finger groove improves grip security. A single-position (right) deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up). It is decorated with an imprint of a dinosaur paw.
Case- included zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer’s logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
