TheWalther EDK is a budget version of the Walther MME (Messermagazin-Edition) knife, which was produced in a limited series of 100 pieces.
The German magazine "Messermagazin" offered its readers a contest to design a new everyday knife. Readers chose a design by Simon Telpl, and that's how the Walther MME (Messermagazin-Edition) knife was created in a limited series of only 100 pieces.
The perfect edc knife
The 75 mm long blade is made of 440C stainless steel hardened to 59 HRC. Resistance to wear and corrosion, good sharpness retention and ease of sharpening make the 440C steel blade great for everyday use. It is worth noting that a pocket ceramic sharpener is sufficient for sharpening such steel. The blade is finished with satin finish (polishing), which eliminates glare and masks scratches caused by the use of the knife. The blade, with a utilitarian drop-point profile, has a flat grind, a sturdy stock, and a cutting edge with a gentle curve, thanks to which the knife provides good cutting properties and high penetration.
Classic unfolding
The blade is unfolded in using two hands, with the help of a nail cutout. This classic solution has been used for decades in pocket knives, among others, and allows legal carry in most EU countries. Thanks to the use of a universal pin, we can easily adjust the smoothness of the blade's unfolding. Precise operation of the knife is facilitated by the milling cutters on the back of the blade, allowing a stable thumb rest.
Locking blade
The blade, when unfolded, is locked by a liner-lock mechanism. When the blade is unfolded, the role of the lock is played by a spring-loaded liner that rests against the back of the blade, thus preventing it from folding. Liner-lock is prized for its simplicity, reliability and heavy-duty durability.
Lightweight handle
The Walther EDK has textured polymer facings attached to the skeleton with screws. The back of the handle has a hole for a paracord braid.
