Confidence in Every Grip. Painstakingly Made Designed for use in multiple environments and conditions, the Vosteed Marten features a contoured ergonomic handle with micro-milled grooves for a confident and controlled natural grip.   During the 30-minute CNC micro-milling process, each side of the handle has up to 20 groove within 1 inch (54 grooves per side). These grooves are angled at 48° to offer exceptional traction against the natural movement of the fingertips. After the CNC, 2-3 rounds of the ultrasonic cleaning process are conducted before the anodization. This ensures an ultra-clean surface, and even the tiniest particles, oils, and impurities are removed. Compared to existing models on the market, the Marten has the best-in-class finishes on its aluminum handles, and you will enjoy using it.   Office & Dinner The all-new low-profile pocket clip reduces signature, and with the well-adjusted tension, the new clip provides both secured carry and ease of use. To further improve the carry comforts, skeletonized liners are made to reduce extra weight, and the Marten will sit nicely even in the pocket of your dress trousers.  The 154CM drop-point blade is not only great for your daily tasks but also offers an elegant and classy appearance to complete the overall design.   Reliable and Convenient The Marten utilized a Top Liner Lock, combining the best of both compression-based liner lock and button lock. It’s a perfect match of reliability and convenience. Additionally, the button lock is adorned with micro-milled grooves that match the handle pattern, providing added traction for safe, easy operations.   Details Matter 1.All T8 Screws: The Marten features T8 screws throughout, making daily maintenance simple and straightforward. 2.Secured Lanyard Hole: The lanyard hole is an integrated part of the aluminum backspacer, preventing any accidental damageto the lanyard. 3.Jewelry-like Pivot Screw: The pivot screw is elegantly smooth, adding a refined, jewelry-like touch that enhances Marten’s aesthetics. 4.Dual Stop Pins: Equipped with two stop pins, one for opening and one for closing, the design reduces wear on the pins, extending Marten’s lifespan. 5.Nested Liners: The Marten’s liners are nested within the handle for a clean, sophisticated look and enhanced stability.
