Description

Following in the footsteps of its bigger brothers the Tenacious®, Resilience®, and Persistence®, this elite expression of the Ambitious™ Lightweight supercharges its performance with Crucible® CPM® S35VN® blade steel. The finely tuned chemistry of this American-made particle metallurgy steel promotes the formation of niobium carbides along with vanadium and chromium carbides, enhancing its toughness without sacrificing wear resistance. The full-flat-ground blade of this knife takes full advantage of these properties and is available in a choice of PlainEdge™ or fully serrated SpyderEdge™ formats. The satin-finished blade is housed in a handle featuring bright blue fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales, non-slip Bi-Directional Texturing™, skeletonized full stainless steel liners, a stout LinerLock mechanism, and a versatile four-position pocket clip that provides a choice of left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry.
