Description: This Willem Steenkamp custom Raider Flipper EDC liner lock is a fantastic utility folder. The drop point blade and ergonomic handle are perfectly designed for the task at hand.
Willem was accepted as a member of the Knifemakers’ Guild of Southern Africa (KGSA) in May of 2007. His attention to detail is clearly evident in his knives.
The 3.4 inch clip point blade is made from N690 stainless steel hardened to 59 Hrc with a differential finish. The flats are mirror polished. The grinds are satin finished. N690 is a super-steel created by Bohler in Austria. It takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds on to it. Increased toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping. The blade is hollow ground for an easy to maintain edge.
The handle combines natural canvas micarta with black G-10 bolsters. A circle of natural canvas micarta set around the pivot adds tremendous contrast. Anodized titanium liners keep the knife light and fast. A flipper assists in the ease of opening. The titanium pocket clip is mounted for tip-up, right-handed carry.
Willem made an excellent knife that is sure to become a daily user or the pride of your collection.
