FALLKNIVEN RL1di Desert Ironwood

AFNRL1DI

The Fallkniven RL1 - everything about this knife is focused on how the blade edge integrates into the hand seamlessly and effortlessly. The steel, of course, is one of the best you will find for a folding knife. ELMAX stainless steel is a so-called "super steel", meaning its hardness and edge retention properties are far above normal. It is a high chromium-vanadium-molybdenum steel made with 1.7 percent carbon, 18 percent chromium, 0.3 percent manganese, 1 percent molybdenum, 0.8 percent silicon, and 3 percent vanadium. This is a so-called "powder steel", which means there is no noticeable "grain", making it exceptionally strong.

The design of the RL1 is also blade-oriented. The Desert Ironwood handle is shaped to flow into the blade, making the balance and feel in the hand unparalleled in use.
