The Kandar N482 gold knife is instantly recognisable thanks to its gold colour, which also covers the blade. All edges have a rounded shape, so the knife is comfortable to hold and handle.
The knife’s construction consists of a metal base with metal grips in gold colour screwed onto it with three Torx screws. For everyday carry you can use the clip, which allows you to hang the knife on a pocket or belt. If the clip gets in the way, you can easily remove it by undoing two screws. The cut-outs in the central part of the grips have both an aesthetic and a practical function, as they additionally reduce the weight of the knife.
The blade made of stainless steel 440 is easy to sharpen thanks to hardening and at the same time retains its sharpness for a long time. In the open position, the blade is locked by a Liner Lock safety. The safety itself is easily accessible with the thumb of the strong hand.
Assisted opening allows you to open the knife one-handed, using the so‑called flipper. For traditional opening, the blade is equipped with a standard thumb stud.
