The blade is high-end, CPM154 steel, manufactured using power metallurgy for a consistent distribution of carbides. This level of expert engineering ensures the blade will take and hold a superior edge, resisting corrosion and guaranteeing years of performance. A black diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating increases the blade's hardness and wear resistance while making the blade non-reflective for more stealthy applications. The black, anodized aluminum handle keeps the knife lightweight. A recessed push button and integrated backspacer, located in the handle, opens and locks the blade--ensuring safe handling while preventing accidental blade deployment. Right-handed users operate the button with their thumbs while left-handed users can trigger the button with their index fingers. The Launch 4 can be transported easily with its included single-position pocket clip. |
