The folder uses a drop-point blade made of BRD 4116 stainless steel, a martensitic stainless steel hardened to a hardness of 56 HRC, which makes the blade retain its sharpness well and is easy to sharpen even for those with no experience in this field. Thanks to a 15% admixture of chromium, the steel is highly resistant to corrosion, has good wear resistance (carbon content of 0.54%), and is also one of the hardest steels in the budget class. All this makes the BRD 4116 steel knife an ideal choice for beginner outdoor enthusiasts and those who do not want to waste time on the lengthy and tedious sharpening of a premium steel knife. The strong stab (tip) and high flat grind provide good penetration, blade strength and good cutting properties. The blade has a matte stonewashed (abrasive stone bath) finish, which effectively masks minor scratches or abrasions to the blade from use.
Thanks to the double-sided peg, the knife can be quickly and easily disassembled with one hand. Such a solution makes the knife not only instantly ready for use, but also convenient for right- and left-handed users. The blade, when unfolded, is locked by a liner-lock mechanism.
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 valued for its simplicity, reliability and heavy-duty durability.
The handle is mainly responsible for the comfortable handling of the knife. The Ganzo G6252-GR has molded G-10 plastic liners attached to the steel frame liners with torx screws. The corrugated texture of the plastic and the ergonomic profile of the handle, make the knife secure and comfortable even in a wet or frozen hand. Conveniently carrying the knife in a pocket, on a belt or by a backpack is ensured by a springy steel clip (tip up) attached on the right side.
