The knife industry is constantly pushing the envelope searching for, and testing, higher performance blade steels. ZDP189 is rapidly asserting itself as an up-and-coming steel. It's a powdered metal made by Hitachi that has phenomenal chemistry with 3% carbon. The hardness is around 64Rc and edge retention is exceptional. This solid ZDP-189 steel blade is the hottest, hardest and highest performing steel in the knife industry today. The Delica 4 features a full flat ground ZDP-189 steel blade, a Green FRN Bi-Drectional Textured Handle, four-way clip option, screw-together construction, skeletonized steel internal liners, phosphor bronze washers, David Boye Dent, spine jimping, and an enlarged opening hole.
- DELICA 4 - An equal partner in the history-making accomplishments of the Endura, the Delica 4 family includes a full range of handle colors, blade grinds, and edge configurations, as well as a blunted training version and a model with the Emerson Opening
- FRN HANDLE - Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon is a polymer mixed with glass fiber then injection molded into formed and textured lightweight high-strength knife handles.
- FULL-FLAT GRIND - This knife features a blade ground with flat bevels that extend from the spine all the way to the cutting edge. This grind reduces drag during cutting and decreases overall weight.
- PLAINEDGE - A sharpened knife blade with no serrations or teeth sometimes referred to as a smooth blade.
