Rockstead RYO-H (BL) Mirror Finish Blade Blue Titanium

Description

The Rockstead RYO H-ZDP folding knife features a 3.125″ ZDP-189 steel, mirror finish blade and DLC titanium handles. The opening action is incredibly smooth while the lock keeps the blade securely open. The RYO H-ZDP is the first Rockstead model with the conceal slip design. This allows to you to hide the pocket clip for more comfortable use and handling.

The mirror finish is achieved by heat treating the blade and gradually hand grinding through 400, 600, 800, 1,200 and 2,000 grit wet-dry sandpaper. This is very intense and time-consuming because if any scratches were to occur during this process, the blade must be sent back to the previous step for refinishing. Once this is complete, the blade will be buffed for the final finish. The folks at Rockstead have mastered this process to give the knife a beautiful finish and sharp edge like no other. Feels extremely comfortable and solid in the hand. Individually numbered.

With proper maintenance, Rocksteads are known to keep a sharp edge for 2-3 years. Rockstead Knives come with free sharpening and regrinding. You would be responsible for shipping charges to and from Japan.
