Overview
Description
The ArtisanCutlery Virginia is a sleek and lightweight flipper that is great for everyday carry. While on the larger side, its slender handle and blade shape allow it to fit comfortably in the hand or pocket. The blade is 3.94" and crafted from D2 tool steel. This air-hardened tool steel is more corrosion resistant than other high carbon steels due to its high chromium content and offers a good mix of toughness, wear resistance, and edge holding ability. The handles are made from textured G10 over stainless steel liners and include a stainless steel pocket clip set up for right or left-hand tip-up carry.
