Specifications

Design & Materials

Ostap Hel's IVY design takes its name and visual identity from the flowing, organic lines of ivy leaves — visible in the blade's graceful drop-point profile and the sculpted G10 handle scales. The BG59B renders this design in blue G10, a glass-fiber reinforced composite that delivers exceptional strength, moisture resistance, and a textured surface for a secure grip in any conditions.

The 14C28N blade steel is a Sandvik premium stainless formulation with outstanding corrosion resistance, excellent toughness, and a fine grain structure that allows the blade to take and hold a very sharp working edge. The full stonewash finish gives the IVY BG59B a rugged, utilitarian aesthetic while concealing everyday wear and micro-scratches that naturally accumulate on a carried knife.

Liner Lock Mechanism

The Bestech IVY BG59B's Liner Lock uses a sprung steel liner that snaps positively behind the blade tang when the knife is fully deployed. This proven mechanism requires no adjustment over time and engages automatically with every opening. Disengaging it is simple — push the liner aside with your thumb and fold the blade back into the handle safely.
