Microtech Hawk Automatic Karambit Stonewashed M390 Full Serrated Black Aluminum 166-12

The Microtech Hawk Auto revives the iconic 1996 design with 21st Century updates and aesthetics for a sleeker finish and increased functionality. This version features a piercing, fully serrated hawkbill karambit blade of stonewashed M390 stainless steel and a black hard anodized aircraft grade aluminum handle. 

Brand new, direct from Microtech Knives, USA.

Blade: The Hawk sports a nearly 4 inch claw-like hawkbill blade of high performance M390 stainless steel with a rugged, wear hiding stonewashed finish. High saber grind, top swedge and thick spine deliver robust, tactical performance while the flats feature weight-reducing cutouts with a futuristic style. The point-tapering grind offers an excellent combination of strength and cutting performance while the tip point offers powerful piercing capabilities while retaining a high level of toughness. The blade opens lightning quick via the large, high traction button actuator for fast access.

Handle: Constructed of durable aluminum handles that are both light weight and tough, finished in a black hard anodization for a discreet look. A finger choil and arched back deliver security in the hand in any position along with strategic jimping for solid traction. The same button that deploys the blade also disengages the rock solid plunge lock that for secure use. The Hawk is completed with Torx Hardware, and hardened steel glass breaker insert.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up pocket clip.

Bohler M390: A popular choice for high-end user grade knives thanks to its exceptional edge retention, M390 has a good corrosion resistance for minimal maintenance. Another great feature of this steel is the ability to resist burr formation during sharpening. Comparable steels are CTS-204P and Duratech 20CV.
