Artisan Cutlery Arion Frame Lock Micarta Folding Knife [1843G-DRC]

Arion — An extended blade with contrasting handle sides

The Arion pairs a long working blade with a handle whose front grip material differs from its titanium reverse side. That asymmetrical construction separates the outer contact material from the supporting frame-lock side, with thumb-pull purchase on the blade.

Opening and lock operation

Part of the metal handle itself forms the locking bar. It moves behind the open blade and is pushed aside to release it, giving the mechanism a direct, exposed interface along the handle.

Steel and maintenance

S35VN is a powder-metallurgy stainless steel developed to balance wear resistance with toughness. It gives this blade a useful combination of edge life and resistance to corrosion for everyday cutting.

Handle construction

Micarta combines layers of fiber and resin. Its texture and appearance can change with handling, giving it a different surface character from smooth metal or molded plastic.

Supplied equipment

Black nylon zippered storage case.
