Artisan Cutlery Tortoise Frame Lock Titanium Folding Knife [1884G-BK]

Tortoise — An extended Wharncliffe with a long metal frame

The Tortoise pairs a long utility edge with a substantial titanium handle. Its lowered point and comparatively straight forward edge create a different cutting profile from a curved drop point, with contrasting backspacers and hardware defining the factory finish.

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

Titanium provides a corrosion-resistant metal structure. Anodizing and surface machining change its appearance and contact texture; they are different treatments from adding a separate grip scale or inlay.

Supplied equipment

Black nylon zippered storage case.
