North Mountain Blade Chop 2 3.5in Japanese SLD-Magic San Mai Steel Black G10 Handle

We’re proud to introduce the upgraded second generation of our Chop folding knife, meticulously designed to meet the American market’s demand for both robustness and functionality.

This knife features ceramic bearings and a brass frame, allowing for smooth opening.

Key Features:

• Blade Material: Crafted from Japanese-produced SLD-Magic SAN MAI steel, the blade boasts a Rockwell hardness of 60-61 HRC, offering exceptional durability, edge retention, and resistance to wear and corrosion. The newly incorporated hollow grind blade makes daily cutting tasks smoother and more efficient by reducing resistance, addressing the feedback that this knife should function as a practical tool rather than just a collectible.

• Blade Aesthetics: Using our patented surface treatment, the blade undergoes a unique hot-forging process to form genuine, intricate patterns—not superficial laser engravings. The blade features a three-layer gradient gloss: a mirror-polished base, a misty midsection, and a frosted upper surface—reminiscent of a traditional Japanese samurai sword.

• Handle Material: The handle is made from durable G10, known for its lightweight yet robust properties. It offers excellent grip under all conditions, including moisture, extreme temperatures, and chemicals.

• Design Enhancements: We've integrated a button lock mechanism and traditional flipper for swift and easy operation. A handguard has been added to ensure a secure grip, especially during heavy-duty tasks. The blade has also been widened to cater to the American market's preference for a more substantial, reliable design.
