The company Takumitak with Chinese roots, now based in Ontario, California, has specialized for many years in the production of knives with a robust Full-Tang blade in all possible shapes and sizes. Their aim is to offer the widest possible range of knives to meet the requirements of every demanding customer.
This knife boasts a robust 3.9mm thick blade made of stainless steel 3cr13 with an etched finish that faithfully imitates Damascus steel. The handle is made of glow-in-the-dark resin with a stylish smoky tint. The package also includes a reliable 1680D nylon sheath compatible with the MOLLE system.
Full-tang construction
The Full-tang designation means that the blade and the inner part of the handle are made from a single piece, which significantly increases the overall durability of the knife and prevents it from breaking.
Blade made of stainless steel 3cr13
Stainless steel known as 3cr13 is an ideal choice for knives intended for everyday use. Thanks to its lower hardness of HRC 54–56 it is easy to sharpen, and with its high chromium content you don’t have to worry about corrosion. In short, it represents a balance between durability, easy maintenance, and purchase price.
Composition: 84.03% iron, 0.3% carbon, 13% chromium, 1% manganese, 0.6% nickel, 0.04% phosphorus, 0.03% sulfur, and 1% silicon
Handle made of glow-in-the-dark resin
This time the manufacturer opted for a rather unconventional material for the handle, namely resin with added luminous powder. After being exposed to a torch/flashlight or simply to sunlight, it will continue to glow in the dark, which, for example at night, makes it easier to find the knife. In addition, thanks to the mixture of different colour tones, it offers a very attractive design with a smoky effect.
